I'm really interested in continuing my athletics in college, and I'm looking at Georgia Military Community College. What's their athletics program like?
Georgia Military College, often referred to as GMC, participates in a variety of athletics and is part of the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA). The college fields teams in various sports which includes:
- Football
- Softball
- Baseball
- Men and Women’s Soccer
- Men and Women’s Cross Country
- Men and Women’s Track & Field
- Men and Women’s Golf
- Men and Women’s Rifle
- Cheerleading
GMC has been successful in athletics, with its teams often performing well and taking part in many regional and national championships in their respective sports. Their football team has been particularly successful, garnering recognition on a national level within the NJCAA.
Notably, the Athletic Department at GMC prides itself on promoting not just athletic excellence but also high academic performance, leadership, discipline, and equitable competition. GMC offers athletic scholarships for student-athletes, and they have an academic support system designed for athletes to ensure they sufficiently balance the rigor of sports with their academic responsibilities.
GMC, being a military college, also maintains a strong focus on leadership and discipline within its athletic program. So, if you're a student-athlete who thrives in an environment that values athletic prowess, academic commitment, and leadership skills, GMC's athletics programs could be a good fit. As always, I'd recommend trying to speak with or even visit the school if that's possible for you. You can get a more specific feel for the athletics programs by speaking with coaches or current athletes, and seeing the school's facilities.
