Join Aggie Men’s Basketball for the annual Autism Awareness game!
Autism Awareness Game
When: Saturday, January 26 vs. Kansas State
Where: Reed Arena
Time: 1:00 PM
The Texas A&M Men's Basketball program is partnering with Autism Speaks and local Bryan-College Station autism advocacy organizations to help spread awareness and support for families in our community and across the country dealing with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
Players on both sides will be wearing Autism Speaks shooting shirts during pregame warm-ups and on the bench as well as coaches and staff wearing special lapel pins. Additionally, families who attend the game with a loved one on the spectrum can share the experience in a sensory friendly watch-party set in a quieter setting which will be held in the lobby of the Cox-McFerrin Center (located on the west concourse of Reed Arena).
Aggie Basketball is encouraging fans to get involved in the local Bryan-College Station community. Visit www.facetsbcs.org (Families of Autistic Children Engaged Together for Support) to find out what resources are available locally for families of individuals on the autism spectrum.
