Read to the Final Four

The Read to the Final Four program is an annual literacy challenge aimed at creating a lifelong love and interest in reading for students across the states in which the Men’s Final Four and Women’s Final Four are conducted. 
 
In anticipation of the 2025 Women’s Final Four, the NCAA and the Tampa Bay Local Organizing Committee (TBLOC) have teamed up to help third-grade students across the state of Florida. Created to support the NCAA’s commitment to education, Read to the Final Four was launched during the 2016 Men’s Final Four and has since made a lasting impact with thousands of students in several host cities across the nation having recorded over 121 million minutes of reading!
 
The NCAA Women’s Final Four and the 2025 TBLOC have teamed up to once again host Read to the Final Four to inspire and incentivize third graders to develop their reading abilities. Schools, teachers, and students participating in this tournament-style program have the chance to win fun prizes and compete to be named the Championship school.

Similar efforts are being conducted in San Antonio, where the NCAA, Men’s Final Four and the San Antonio Local Organizing Committee have teamed up to help third graders across the state develop their abilities as part of a nine-week program designed to leave a lasting impact on students throughout Texas. From January to April 2025, local elementary students are encouraged to track their reading minutes leading up to the Final Four. Participating students and leading classrooms will receive awards to celebrate their accomplishments. The challenge is open to all third graders in elementary schools across the state.
