This year we are excited to offer a stream for high school students thinking, hoping and training to be college or university athletes! Hear from current TWU athletes who will share their unique journeys and insights with you. Find out what they wish they knew before becoming a Spartan athlete. Learn from performance coach Gisele Krueger who works with numerous young athletes across Canada to prepare them to compete at the college and university level. Have a conversation with Spartan coaches about the recruiting process and what a university coach is looking for in an athlete. Hear from Rodney Pryor, an NCAA Div. 1 basketball player and now pro, about one of the foundational principles of being your best…identity and knowing who you are. It will be a great day of learning and helping you achieve your goal to be a university athlete.

Our theme this year is Transformational Coaching in a World of Change. Sport is in a state of upheaval and flux. Being able to build positive relationships with your athletes and still get top level performance without belittling, shaming and discouraging young athletes is so important. Understanding how different cultural groups experience sport is an issue that we are just beginning to truly look at from all sides. Understanding the stress that COVID-19 has added to the lives of an athlete and how to walk with them in a positive way in these turbulent times is essential. These are just some of the key themes that our awesome panel of speakers will explore. Sign up and come ready to connect with our speakers and panels through interactive Zoom sessions where you will be challenged and encouraged to be a sport leader who is making a positive difference in the life of the next generation.
