Razorback Athletics Joins Coca-Cola Title IX Women's Sport Amplification Challenge
U of A athletics is proud to be one of 81 institutions across the nation vying for the title of "Best Women's Sports Fans in the Country" in partnership with Coca-Cola. In celebration of 50 years of Title IX, Coca-Cola is celebrating women's collegiate sports by promoting attendance at women's sporting events.
Now through March 31, U of A students are able to scan a unique QR code at each Razorback women's sporting event to check in their attendance. Students can find the QR codes located on life-size Big Red cutouts inside each student entrance.
Each check-in will count toward the overall school total, which will be calculated as a percentage of the total student body and available women's sporting events at each respective institution.
Not only will attendance boost the Razorbacks' rank, but students will also be eligible to win nearly $700 in Amazon.com gift cards through weekly giveaways. A full list of weekly giveaways and entry rules can be found by clicking here.
The top three universities with the top check-ins will be showcased on social media with custom content courtesy of Coca-Cola. The winning schools will be featured during the NCAA DI Women's Final Four weekend at Coca-Cola's experience at Tourney Town.
