ABOUT US


The Eagle Football Alumni Association (EFAA) is comprised of former Eagle Football players, coaches, managers, cheerleaders, and trainers that have come together in support of the football program at Georgia Southern University. As a division of The GATA Club, EFAA adheres to the mission of "Getting Athletes Together Again" and "Eagles Helping Eagles," while also supporting the football program at Georgia Southern through dues and donations. 

Most, if not all, former athletes can say their lives were positively affected by participating in a sport at Georgia Southern. Joining the Eagle Football Alumni Association is a small way to pay it forward and support the current and future football program. In return, members will receive some Eagle Football merchandise and exclusive tailgating and reunion opportunities.
