Student-athletes from Men's Soccer, Women's Soccer and Men's Basketball joined forces with the University of South Carolina's GoodBodies program to participate in their "Week of Play."

The university's Exercise Science department in the Arnold School of Public Health oversees the GoodBodies program, which promotes exercise and healthy, active lifestyles for kids. The "Week of Play" was planned to celebrate nickelodeon's "Day of Play" on September 24th, an annual worldwide event designed by Nickelodeon to encourage kids and parents to turn off the television and play, especially outdoors.

Gamecock student-athletes went to area elementary schools before the school day started to talk about being active and participating in sports, along with several fun group activities to get the kids up and moving.
