DRAGONS MVP

The Dragons MVP Program, a tool for teachers, uses the marketing power of Dayton Dragons Baseball as an educational tool for fourth and fifth grade teachers to help them motivate and reward students for success in the classroom. This is where the beauty of the Dragons MVP Program kicks in. The use and distribution of the awards we’re offering is entirely up to each teacher. Each teacher is the sole judge and jury in how to use the Dayton Dragons MVP ‘tool’ in their class room. Fourth and fifth grade teachers in a five county area (Clark, Greene, Miami, Montgomery and Warren counties) will receive an award kit to recognize five students in their classroom. Each of the five students selected as a Dragons MVP in their classroom will receive four lawn tickets to a special MVP night at Day Air Ballpark, an MVP certificate, and a uniquely designed MVP hat.

In addition to these items, they also have the opportunity to have their success story highlighted in PlayBall! And Dayton Daily News, participate in a pre-game parade, throws out a first pitch, participate in the umpire/plate meeting, deliver the game ball to the mound, and participate in an Entertainment skit during a Dragons game.
