Community engagement is an important component of the experience as a Division II student-athlete. The Southern Connecticut State University field hockey team continues to be active in the local community with various ventures.

All intercollegiate programs at SCSU participate in the Tim Greer Insurance Agency, Inc. Community Service Cup, which provides a competitive format that allows student-athletes to gain an enriched experience through engagement with the on-campus and local communities by supporting ventures of traditional citizens, campus community members and peer students and student-athletes. SCSU student-athletes volunteered nearly 3,000 hours of their time to numerous outreach efforts, both on-campus and in Greater New Haven, during the 2011-12 academic year.

Among the events that the team and coaching staff participated in during the past calendar year:

• Hosted its third annual ‘Play For The Cure’ game to promote breast cancer awareness. Coordinated the event in conjunction with the Susan G. Komen Foundation. • Read to local elementary school students as part of a weekly program at Clinton Avenue School in New Haven. • Tutored youngsters at the Beecher School in New Haven as part of a weekly program. • Tutored youngsters at the Clemente School in New Haven as part of a weekly program. • Baked pies during the holiday season for distribution at the Springfield (Mass.)
