Mentoring | Academic Enrichment | Training

In 2023, the Lansing Cowboys have partnered with the Lansing School District (LSD) to establish Lansing City Youth Football, a grassroots initiative. Our expansion includes the creation of Lansing City Level Up, a mentoring and tutoring program operating under LSD's Student Development Program. Geared toward 2nd to 8th graders, this initiative will cover academics, athletics, health, wellness, and life skills for both young men and women. Through this holistic approach, we aim to nurture and empower our youth.

This collaboration merges sports with education, fostering comprehensive development in our youth. Lansing City Level Up is committed to supporting students in their scholastic, athletic, and personal growth. Our focus extends beyond the football field, aiming to cultivate well-rounded individuals who excel academically and in life.

Lansing City Level Up is a testament to our dedication to the youth of our community. By providing mentorship and guidance, we aspire to build a solid foundation for their future success. Join us as we embark on this exciting journey of empowerment and education for the youth of Lansing.
