Sports Ambassador

SPARC's Sport Ambassadors have all achieved to a high level in the international sporting arena, and are well known to most New Zealanders. They work with our young people to help them achieve their sporting goals.

How it Works:

The ambassadors run a 3 hour session with each group of students. The sessions deal with dreams, motivation, time management, fair play and goal setting. The ambassadors draw from their personal experiences and work through a student workbook dealing with these issues.

Who should benefit?

Each group should be carefully selected to ensure the ambassadors have some real impact on the students they work with and that the sessions are interactive. Groups should be no larger than 25-30 and be drawn from students who demonstrate either high levels of sporting performance or outstanding leadership skills in any area of the school's activities.
