Athletics
Graduating Champions!

Become a Skyhawks Club member by supporting the club fund or individual teams!

On behalf of our student-athletes, thank you for supporting FLC Athletics! The Skyhawks Club is dedicated to securing philanthropic support that directly benefits FLC Athletics, helping us uphold our mission to graduate champions. Every gift—no matter the size—makes a meaningful difference in our success.

Your contributions support the well-being, athletic and academic growth, and career preparation of our student-athletes, ensuring they are prepared for a lifetime of achievement after graduation.

While our primary goal is to cover scholarship costs for all FLC student-athletes receiving aid, there are many other impactful ways to contribute. These include endowed scholarships, capital gifts for facilities, planned gifts, and individual sports contributions to cover annual operating expenses.

As we work to build a premier NCAA Division II program of excellence, I invite you to join the Skyhawks Club today and make a lasting impact on the lives of our student-athletes. Together, we can help them soar!

To the top!
