“We are grateful for the efforts of the 1693 Alliance and their work on behalf of our student-athletes. The landscape of college athletics has changed dramatically in the past few years, and it continues to evolve. It is now possible to partner directly with student-athletes through use of their Name, Image and Likeness. The 1693 Alliance offers this opportunity to Tribe supporters with a focus on connecting our student-athletes to local charities. William & Mary Athletics works hard to ensure our student-athletes have every opportunity to succeed in competition, in the classroom, and in the community, and we appreciate the efforts of the 1693 Alliance to add to this support.”

“The obvious benefit of the 1693 Alliance is allowing our student-athletes to be compensated for their name, image and likeness. In addition, something that our program views as being an equal benefit is how it can connect our alumni, fans and community directly to student-athletes. There is no limit on the impact those connections can have on our players for years to come, potentially fostering a relationship that can help them succeed well-beyond their playing days. Having the backing of the 1693 Alliance has become a vital part of our program.”
