As the first national 501(c)3 nonprofit specializing in the after-care of student-athletes experiencing a medically forced exit from sport, Sidelined USA is dedicated to reuniting sidelined athletes with their passions and equipping them to find a meaningful way forward. Sidelined USA helps these young people make the shift and harness their athletic mindset to dream new dreams and conquer new challenges.

When a dedicated student-athlete receives the news that their athletic dream is cut short due circumstances outside their control, the psychological manifestation of loss typically includes depression, anxiety, stress, fear, and living with uncertainty. COVID-19-sidelined athletes are hurting right now and needing meaningful mental health support. Sidelined USA is uniquely prepared to offer research-based guidance to all sidelined athletes.

Sidelined USA’s Birthday Fundraiser is a way for athletes, coaches, athletic trainers, families and friends to invest in and celebrate the power of adaptability and hope available to ALL athletes. Your gift today helps sidelined athletes build on the positive attributes learned in sports to be an ‘overcomer’ both on and off the court and field.
