Canadore College and Nipissing District Athletics Collaborate to Support Local Student-Athletes
Canadore College and Nipissing District Athletics (NDA) are proud to announce a new multi-year collaborative partnership designed to enhance athletic opportunities for local high school students and strengthen connections between education, sport, and community.
Through this partnership, Canadore will work alongside NDA to provide expanded opportunities for student-athletes across the district. Canadore will host key NDA events on campus, offering student-athletes and their families a true varsity-level experience across a variety of competitive athletic opportunities. “This partnership is about celebrating and investing in our local student-athletes,” said Lisa Hotte, President of Nipissing District Athletics. “Our students put in tremendous effort on and off the field, and this collaboration with Canadore allows us to showcase their dedication while strengthening the connection between high school and post secondary athletics in our region.”
Beyond event hosting, Canadore will also provide digital, media, and community support to help highlight student achievements, including the creation of a new NDA website, athlete recognition features, and collaborative social media promotion. The partnership also opens the door to future scholarships and mentorship opportunities for local athletes.
Canadore Alumni will also play a role in this collaboration by sharing opportunities for alumni perks and exclusive offers, as well as fostering ongoing connections between graduates, the College, and the athletic community. “We’re proud to partner with Nipissing District Athletics to inspire the next generation of student-athletes,” said George Burton, President and CEO of Canadore College. “This collaboration is about more than hosting events; it’s about helping young people see what’s possible when education, teamwork, and community come together.”
This multi-year partnership reflects a shared commitment to fostering community pride, supporting student success, and promoting lifelong wellness. Together, Canadore College and NDA are building a foundation where student-athletes can thrive, lead, and carry their lessons well beyond the game.
