Student Athletic Advisory Board

The Student Athletic Advisory Board (SAAB) is a committee that was initiated in the 1960s. It is made up of student-athlete representatives from each Trojans sport, as well as Sport Services Department administration and SAIT Student Association (SAITSA) representatives. The SAAB is used as a vehicle to promote communication between the SAIT Athletics Department, SAITSA, and Trojans student-athletes.

The Role of SAAB

The role of the SAAB is to reflect the interests and concerns of the SAIT Trojans student-athletes by:

• Developing ideas for community service projects.
• Providing a student-athlete voice within the department, discussing issues and concerns, and providing feedback as necessary.
• Providing student-athlete response to ACAC and CCAA legislation and suggestions for legislation.
• Fostering student-athlete welfare issues such as overall educational experience, health and safety, student-athlete/coach relationships, fairness, openness, and student-athlete involvement in campus events.
• Fostering achievement of academic and athletic goals.
