Resilience, tenacity, focus, motivation – a few words that we use to describe UBC student athletes. But with the unprecedented challenges of the 2020-21 school year our athletes’ spirit and drive are being put to the test and they could use your help. 

Every day, our athletes work hard to become the best version of themselves to represent UBC – both in the classroom and on the field. With varsity sport competition currently on hold due to COVID-19, our student athletes are facing challenges that they could never have prepared for. They are now adjusting to online learning, modified training and practice sessions, and the uncertainty of when sports will return. 

Thunderbird athletes are digging deep into their physical and mental reserves to maintain their edge. Giving Day is your chance to rally behind your team. A gift to the Thunderbirds will ensure that talented, high achieving student athletes have the resources they need to navigate this unique time in their academic and athletic careers. Support your favourite Thunderbirds team!
