Today’s visit to @camrufc gave our @NCState #PackAbroad students a deeper look at community-based sport in the UK. Huge thanks to Nick Dance & @Crufc_Community for the behind-the-scenes access and thoughtful insights. A great day out!

Couldn’t have asked for a better start for the @NCFC_Youth 09 Courage. Played some great soccer and earned two wins against Classic teams. Big game tomorrow morning. Win/draw and into the final. Regardless of what happens, couldn’t be prouder of these players!

Our @NCState #PackAbroad sport management students had a great time @Saracens today despite the result. They learned a lot about rugby and were excited to cheer on another Wolfpack!

Big thanks to @MillwallFC for hosting our @NCStateCNR @NCSUStudyAbroad students today. Great to hear about the work of @Millwall_MCT and also learn about the hospitality and sponsorship side. Nice tour of the Den from Lucy and Alex. A community club definitely on their way up.
