Car Dealer Program
Car Dealers that provide coaches, administrators, and staff access to vehicles help ease the cost of recruiting and travel for the athletics department. Participants receive ticket, parking, and advertising benefits for their investment.
The Car Dealer Program has been an integral part of the success of Virginia Athletics since the inception of the Virginia Athletics Foundation (VAF). Providing coaches, administrators, and staff access to vehicles, the Car Dealer Program primarily eases the cost of recruiting and travel for the department. Many dealers have been in the program for decades and have passed the love of the Hoos through multiple generations.
Participation in the program allows us to provide a valuable benefit to our coaches and administrators. Participants receive ticket, parking, and advertising benefits for their investment.
If you are a car dealer interested in participating the VAF Courtesy Car Program, please contact Stu Sutton, Chief Operating Officer, by phone at 434.367.8039 or email stusutton@virginia.edu for more information.
