Overall Strategy
The Rough Diamonds Athletic Foundation will focus on the development of what we consider the three spheres of a successful education; Athletic, Academic, and Character enrichment. The organization has identified these areas as having the greatest opportunity for an athlete to create a competitive advantage over their peers in the pursuit of a collegiate athletic scholarship. There
are many student athletes that have the necessary support from parents, teachers, and other family members to help guide them in reaching their potential. Others may not have the same opportunities and support due to broken homes, inconsistency in schools, lack of access to positive role models, and more difficult economic circumstances. For those in greater need, the Rough Diamonds Athletic Foundation will own the integration of these spheres by providing individualized plans for each student athlete to achieve their full potential in each area and ultimately obtain a collegiate scholarship.
