The Mocs Club is excited to announce some new changes to their giving structure for 2019 and beyond. In order to ensure we are able to support all 300 student-athletes, all Mocs Club benefits, including parking and hospitality room access will be based entirely off of
unrestricted gifts to the Mocs Club. You can find the full list of available benefits
here. Sport-specific giving will still accrue priority points.
Funding for student-athlete scholarships continues to be Chattanooga Athletics' most immediate need. Of the 15 athletic programs on campus, only three (Football, Men's Basketball, Women's Basketball) are fully funded.
"It was important for us to identify our most critical need in 2019," stated UTC Vice Chancellor and Director of Athletics
Mark Wharton. "With the cost of educating our student-athletes constantly growing, it is absolutely essential that we continue to grow unrestricted giving."
"Unrestricted gifts to the Mocs Club allow us the flexibility to fill the gap of scholarship support, while seeking to provide the best possible experience for every one of our 300+ student athletes".
In addition to scholarship funding, unrestricted gifts allow our department to improve all areas of the student-athlete experience – everything from academic support, to medical care, to the game day environment in our facilities.
All of the Mocs Club changes are listed below:
Benefit Eligibility
Mocs Club benefits will be based on UNRESTRICTED giving to the Mocs club. Sport specific gifts will no longer be counted towards football and basketball benefits, but will continue to accrue priority points.
New Deadlines:
May 1: Deadline to make gift and be eligible for football parking & hospitality room access
June 30: Deadline to make gift and be eligible for basketball parking & hospitality room access
50% of your total Mocs Club donation must be paid to be eligible for parking and hospitality passes for both deadlines.
Hospitality Passes
As announced last year, there are new limits for the quantity of Football & Basketball hospitality passes based on your giving level. You can view the
benefits chart here.
If you wish to receive additional passes above the limits of your giving level, you may contact the Mocs Club to request them by August 1 (Football) or October 1 (Basketball).
If there is available inventory, requests will be filled in order of priority points and any additional passes offered will cost $100 (Football) or $150 (Basketball).
