Cellular South Introduces New Program
Cellular South, the nation’s largest privately-held wireless provider, has introduced the new Cellular South Gameplan aimed at increasing the success rate for college admission for Mississippi high school student athletes. This ground-breaking program will help the more than 90,000 Mississippi high school athletes understand NCAA academic standards and scholarship funding opportunities, while providing the tools to master the skills necessary to be successful.
The Cellular South Gameplan is designed to help Mississippi student athletes prepare for college and achieve their full potential through a series of in-school educational workshops and follow-up sessions. Each workshop will include a specially designed curriculum that provides students with information on the necessary course and GPA requirements needed to meet NCAA standards and will offer tools and training on a variety of topics ranging from goal-setting to NCAA Clearinghouse eligibility. Follow-up counseling sessions will be available for additional support to help student-athletes continue on the right path to becoming a success at the next level.
The Cellular South Gameplan will be rolled out to more than 25 high schools throughout the state, with a goal of more than 100 schools in two years.
