GYMNASTICS
is coming to HBCUs!
Are you coming with us?
“The Fisk women’s gymnastics program is slated to begin this Fall and the enthusiasm has been nothing short of inspiring. The partnership with Brown Girls Do Gymnastics is highly innovative and we are so excited for the future of Fisk athletics.”
On February 11, 2022, Fisk University announced that they were partnering with Brown Girls Do Gymnastics to assemble the first HBCU Gymnastics team in US history.
After 6 consecutive years of the Brown Girls Do Gymnastics conferences, 2 Camps, dozens of celebrity-endorsed campaigns, and a comprehensive advocacy research study from The Doug Williams Center, we know that now is the time for HBCUs to get involved.
That’s why BGDG has created the HBCU Gymnastics™ Alliance, a network of innovative institutions and exclusive resources cultivated to build pathways for Black and Brown gymnasts to thrive in athletics and academics.
“The need is clear and we are motivated by the opportunity we can provide for young gymnasts of color. With the right partners and sponsors, we are ready to bring the sport to life right here on our campus and build a platform for young women to advance their athletic and academic pursuits.”
“Brown Girls Do Gymnastics (Conference) is an outstanding event and promotes young girls with an opportunity. We encourage these young ladies to take advantage of the opportunity to get involved in a growing sport.”
Join the HBCU Gymnastics Alliance to ensure that your university is included in this monumental moment.
“We could not be more excited to launch the first HBCU Intercollegiate Women’s Artistic Gymnastics Team. Fisk University has always been an educational leader and this women’s gymnastics program will embody all the qualities that define the Fisk experience: excellence, determination and a commitment to a better tomorrow.”
