The BRAA Mission

The Blue Raider Athletic Association (BRAA) is the official fundraising arm of Middle Tennessee State University Athletics. It is an organization made up of Blue Raider fans who believe in the importance of generously providing donations to support enhanced academic and athletic opportunities for MTSU student-athletes. Our mission is BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS. INVESTING IN EXCELLENCE. DEVELOPING CHAMPIONS. Resources drive what’s possible so our mission is realized when generous people provide the critical resources to offer scholarship support, programming, and world-class facilities and that allow all our student-athletes to train, develop and compete at the highest level and pursue championships while earning an education that will impact their lives forever.

LEGACY GIVING

Without my scholarship I wouldn’t be able to do what I’m doing now. I love the opportunity to be a student athlete and represent Middle Tennessee in the classroom and on the court. I am beyond grateful for the opportunity MTSU has given me. Go Blue!

The support our fans and donors show to our softball program is incredible. Our recent facility upgrades really elevate the game day experience for our fans, which in turn elevates what we can do on the field. Our fans mean the world to all of us on the Middle Tennessee softball team!
