EVERY ATHLETE HAS A STORY

No two athletes are alike. Each brings their own personality, experiences, perspective, and ideas to the game.

What's Your Play? is our invitation to listen. We believe the people closest to the game should have a voice in shaping its future, and we're starting by asking young athletes what they would make possible for others.

It also includes the application questions and tips for preparing your 60-second video.
