True success in sports comes from character. Inspired by legendary coach Blanton Collier's guiding principles: Education, Excellence, and Ethics.
We believe the power of sport can teach life lessons that last. Through programs, partnerships, and resources, we educate athletes, coaches, and communities on the importance of respect, teamwork, and leadership. Our goal is to build a culture of sportsmanship from the ground up—where learning and character go hand in hand.
We recognize and support those who strive to be their best while lifting others up, setting a standard of character, discipline, and commitment both in competition and in life. Excellence means holding ourselves to the highest standards of integrity, leadership, and responsibility—on and off the field. We celebrate individuals and organizations that model these values in their daily actions.
At the Blanton Collier Sportsmanship Group, we believe that ethical behavior is the foundation of fair play. We promote honesty, accountability, and courage in all aspects of sport. We champion fairness, respect, and integrity in every aspect of competition, and we honor athletes and coaches to lead with values that extend far beyond the game.
