Sports have always played a significant role in American society. From basketball to football, baseball to soccer, sports have brought people together, created communities, and inspired countless athletes to pursue their dreams.

- Importance of diversity, equality and inclusion among coaching staff and athletic administrators for athlete success.
- Racial disparities in NCAA's name, image, and likeness policy.
