The 100 BMOA partnered with First Tee to sponsor 13 students from Big Brothers Big Sisters to learn the game of golf through the First Tee program.  Students were introduced to the curriculum and the 100 felt it was important to provide resources to students in need.  The 100 sponsors 50 underrepresented kids annually to go through the First Tee program.

The 100 also supported Huston-Tillotson’s summer program for their incoming freshmen.  33 students from HT practiced at different stations to learn about golf clubs, putting, driving, and other networking opportunities with the 100 and First Tee.

What They See is What They’ll Be.

WEAR THE CLUB. WEAR THE CAUSE.
It’s our differences that define us. It’s our diversity that unites us. For the 2022 adidas UNITY Pre-Match Jersey, U.S. roses and Canadian bunchberries come together in a colorful pattern to represent the two nations—and one league—we play for. Because no matter the season, we move best together.

As part of the Wear the Club. Wear the Cause. initiative, Nnedinma Obiwuru (Nnedy) of Austin FC worked with leaders in the Austin community to invite students to see what’s it’s like to attend an Austin FC soccer game at Q2 Stadium.  The students learned the Austin FC chant (Dalle ATX), received Austin FC swag, took a tour of the stadium, and had the opportunity to design their own pair of cleats that were provided by Austin FC.

The 100 Black Men of Austin collaborated with Austin FC and Volkswagen to have 11 young men participate in the national anthem ceremony as USA competed against Grenada in the World Cup in Austin, TX June 10, 2022.  The students had the opportunity to walk out with the USA players hand-in-hand, stand on the field and represent their families, Volkswagen, Austin, TX, 100 Black Men of Austin, and the world as the national anthems were performed.  The students and guardians were provided tickets to the game as USA defeated Grenada 5-0!
