About Our Campaign
The James Madison Field Hockey team is planning to take a foreign trip.
The benefits of this trip will extend beyond just field hockey matches as our student-athletes will gain the life-changing experience of being immersed in a different culture. Traveling abroad will contribute to the individual, team, and technical growth of our student-athletes. This kind of exposure, in a new country, will allow our team to tap into something much greater than ourselves and will contribute to our team development in immeasurable ways.
The cohesiveness of traveling as a group will provide a new type of teamwork and accountability, as well as the chance to experience and create irreplaceable memories that will tie our team together for the rest of our lives. Along with the growth of our team connection, being able to compete internationally will grow the skill of each player on this team. Additionally, as the top-ranked JMU varsity team for community service hours, we will be giving back to the local communities that we are immersed in by volunteering with various service projects and organizations.

Volunteering and giving back to the community is a big part of who we are as a team — including annual volunteering with local youth through Purple Pups. Through our engaged efforts and frequent community service events, our team rises by lifting others.
