Supporting the Raiders with Intermountain Health
Intermountain Health and the Las Vegas Raiders work together in meaningful ways. Intermountain and the Raiders are committed to improving health and well-being in Nevada communities. Intermountain Health is the official health partner of the Las Vegas Raiders and The Raiders are the Intermountain Health Children’s Health partner.
“It was really important of us to partner with an organization like the Raiders, that focuses on the community, keeping kids healthy,” said Lawrence Barnard, Intermountain Health Nevada Children’s Hospital president.”

Here are several ways that the two organizations work together each year to support our Las Vegas Youth in reaching the community to improve health and wellness:
Impact Player of the Week
Each week a different youth football player from Nevada is honored as “The Intermountain Health Impact Player of the Week”.
At Intermountain character matters just as much as talent. That’s why the Impact Player of the Week program means so much to us. Each home game, Intermountain and the Raiders recognize a young athlete who not only excels in sports, they also give back to their community. These stories of service and leadership reflect the very mission of Intermountain: helping people live the healthiest—and most meaningful—lives possible.

Friday Night Showcase & Coaches Clinic and High School Football & Youth Programming
Intermountain is proud to partner with the Raiders to support the next generation of student-athletes.
From hosting coaches’ clinics focused on mental health to spotlighting high school matchups each week, we are actively working to uplift high school sports across Nevada and Utah. These programs inspire pride, bring communities together, and reinforce the importance of whole-person health—on and off the field.
Helmet Giveback Program
At Intermountain, safety is a priority in youth sports, and through our partnership with the Raiders, we’ve been able to make a real difference. Together, we’ve donated over 400 high-quality football helmets to various high school programs in Southern Nevada. It’s essential for all young athletes to have access to safe and respectful playing conditions. This year, Round Mountain High School was the recipient of the gear for the new season.

“It’s really highlighting things on the field for youth and high school athletes as well as off the field,” said Myles Hayes, Las Vegas Raiders’ Sr. Director, Football Development.
