About TFL
What is Teammates For Life?
Teammates For Life is a Women's Athletics Initiative launched in 2023 and fueled by a powerful mission: To elevate the visibility, support and impact of women's athletics at Penn State. TFL connects current female student-athletes with Penn State's vast alumnae network to provide mentorship, career guidance, and team support. As a result, TFL empowers our student-athletes to build the confidence they need to thrive during their college years, and to transition seamlessly into life beyond athletics.
Donations & Giving
Does Teammates For Life accept donations?
Teammates For Life is focused on programming that builds strong bonds between Penn State's female athletes and extensive alumnae network, and on raising scholarship funds to attract and retain elite student-athletes in our women’s programs. Fundraising is integral to the success of Penn State women’s athletics. If you or someone you know would like to give to the Teammates For Life Fund, please email Seth Nagle at [email protected].
NIL & Eligibility
Is Teammates For Life connected to NIL?
Teammates For Life is a separate initiative to elevate the visibility, support and impact of women's athletics at Penn State. Teammates For Life is not connected to Penn State NIL efforts. The initiative, however, is an extension of Title IX's legacy at Penn State, prioritizing and supporting female athletes.
