LAS VEGAS (UNLVRebels.com) - The UNLV Department of Athletics has announced the formation of the new Rebel Fan Council (RFC) to assist in enhancing the fan experience at home athletic events.

UNLV Athletics is introducing its first fan-centric committee to gain a better understanding of its game day atmosphere and to discuss possible areas for improvement. Applications for all interested fans are now open and available online by clicking here.

The main focus of the Fan Council will be to create an open line of communication between fans and UNLV's administration to discuss fans' experiences on game days and create actionable steps to help the department create the best possible game atmosphere.

Approximately 10-15 individuals will comprise the council, representing a variety of segments. Members will serve one-year terms with the potential for renewal. Meetings will begin in late July or early August, and will be focused on improving all aspects of the game day experience and creating ideas to increase attendance. Final selection of the council will take place in late-June, with the first meeting set for July.
