The VIP Reception will begin at 5:30 p.m. and includes speciality mixed drinks, networking with Nicholls coaches, a Nicholls Athletics exclusive apparel gift box and a presentation of inside information of what’s to come with Nicholls Athletics. Dress is casual game-day attire

The Colonel Athletic Association is the principal fundraising organization of the Nicholls State University Athletics Department, providing a way for alumni, family, friends and fans to help Nicholls student-athletes receive an education while also pursuing their athletic careers. The association’s primary focus is to provide opportunities and support for Nicholls Athletics’ most important assets, its people, and to raise funds for facility enhancements and operational expenses. 

Nicholls Athletics relies on the generous support of donors to support each of its 17 Division 1 sports teams, cheer squad, athletic trainers and 350+ student athletes. Every donor makes a difference and each gift, regardless of size, has a direct impact on all student-athletes here at Nicholls.  

The CAA offers six membership levels with various corresponding benefits to the donor. To learn more about the CAA, become a member or donate, visit https://www.nicholls.edu/caa/donate/.
