At 1851 Champions Collective, we’re leveling up Catawba College student-athletes by unlocking their full potential through innovative Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) opportunities. We are dedicated to empowering athletes to confidently build authentic, marketable personal brands while connecting them with strategic partnerships that amplify their impact both online and in the community.

With personalized guidance, engaging workshops, and a vibrant network of business leaders and alumni, we’re giving athletes the modern tools they need—not just to succeed in today’s NIL landscape, but to thrive professionally long after their collegiate careers end. At 1851 Champions Collective, we don’t just support athletes—we champion their stories, passions, and dreams, helping them turn today’s opportunities into tomorrow’s success.
