10 ways to support RDC Athletics
Without our sponsors, our athletics program would be nowhere near the quality level it is currently. Being an athlete is expensive ... and with post-secondary education also adding financial burdens, many talented athletes struggle to make ends meet. Your sponsorship dollars can be directed to either Adopt an Athlete or Team Scholarship program.
Adopt An Athlete
The Adopt an Athlete program provides our supporters the opportunity to reach out and directly support the many student-athletes that are competing as Kings & Queens. Pick a student-athlete and play a role in their success in the classroom and in competition!

Scholarships & Awards
Last year, Red Deer College awarded nearly $850,000 in scholarships and awards to students. The support of our community is helping to provide access for more students, as we work to ensure everyone has the opportunity to pursue success. Contact the Enterprise & Community Relations Department to further explore this exciting possibility!

Athletics Leadership Fund
The Athletics Leadership Fund supports, develops and sustains the many leadership opportunities that exist in our renowned Athletics program. With the outstanding support of our community, the Fund has already had a remarkable impact on our program and has helped to reduce student-athlete fundraising activities so they can focus on their studies and their athletic goals.

Attending Games
Our student-athletes are extremely motivated, and you can help them by filling the stands throughout RDC’s Athletics season! The Kings & Queens offer some of the best sports entertainment in central Alberta, and they feed off a packed house! All community members are welcome for this family friendly entertainment. Visit the RDC Athletics website for an update listing of our upcoming home games.
Participating in Fundraisers
RDC boasts a remarkable history of fundraising events. Including Wayne Gretzky, James Duthie, Ron MacLean, and many more, the College has welcomed a wide array of guests over the years as we raise funds for our student-athletes. Highlighted by the annual Golf Classic in the fall, and the Kings & Queens Scholarship Breakfast in the spring, our fundraising endeavours also include an annual Christmas Tree sale and more. Keep coming back to the RDC Athletics website for details on the many exciting opportunities throughout the year!
