The NFF Leadership & Entrepreneurial Academy's purpose is to create programs to assist and encourage young men and women to utilize and take advantage of the opportunities provided through football. These programs would be a benefit to those who have earned their undergraduate degree(s) while emphasizing and building on the teamwork and leadership-building qualities learned on the field that lead to individual success. The Academy's motto is: "Build a house in four years that you will live in for the next 40 years."

The GSV Boot Camp is a FREE, four-week course designed to provide key leadership and entrepreneurial skills to complement a student athlete’s four-year degree. Research has shown that 65% of all college students want to start a business or work for a start-up company. Additionally, employers consistently say leadership potential and entrepreneurial skills are the two qualities they look for in a job candidate.
