The University of Notre Dame athletics department is now accepting applications for the 2015-16 Notre Dame Athletics Fan Council.

The first-ever Notre Dame Athletics Fan Council will assist the department in evaluating and enhancing the fan experience at Fighting Irish athletic events. This group will convene quarterly on campus, and members will have the opportunity to provide feedback from their personal experiences attending Notre Dame events.

“Establishing this council will provide a great opportunity to further engage and connect with Notre Dame fans,” Assistant Athletics Director for Marketing Brian Pracht says. “Our goal is to find a group of individuals who support Notre Dame Athletics in a variety of ways and who have unique interests. Seeking feedback and working together with Irish fans is very valuable in our efforts to deliver a world-class experience for our customers.”

The Athletics Fan Council will feature students, alumni and non-alumni, and represent a cross-section of fans from Notre Dame’s athletic programs. Members will serve for one academic year, beginning in July 2015. Meetings will cover many topics that impact fan engagement and will feature guest speakers within the Notre Dame athletics administration and coaching staff.

UPDATE:  We are no longer accepting applications for the 2015-16 Notre Dame Athletics Fan Council. Thank you for your interest and support of the Fighting Irish.
