STUDENT-ATHLETE LEADERSHIP SUMMIT
Developing Leaders Beyond the Game.
The Youth-N-Action Student-Athlete Leadership Summit is a one-day leadership and personal development experience designed to prepare middle and high school student-athletes to become stronger leaders in the classroom, in competition, and throughout their communities.
Today's student-athletes are expected to manage academics, athletics, relationships, social media, personal responsibilities, and decisions about their futures. Youth-N-Action created the Student-Athlete Leadership Summit to provide young people with practical tools and positive guidance to successfully navigate those responsibilities.
The Summit brings together coaches, educators, college athletes, business and community leaders, motivational speakers, and other professionals to engage student-athletes in meaningful conversations and interactive learning experiences.
Summit Focus Areas
Programming may include leadership and character development, mental and emotional wellness, academic accountability, communication, time management, goal setting, social media responsibility, teamwork, decision-making, college readiness, financial literacy, NIL education, and preparing for life beyond athletics.
More Than an Athlete
Our goal is to challenge student-athletes to understand that their identity and potential extend beyond their sport. Participants leave the Summit with practical leadership strategies, greater awareness of their responsibilities as student-athletes, and tools they can use to positively influence their teams, schools, families, and communities.
The Summit complements the mission of AthleteU, Youth-N-Action's student-athlete development initiative, by emphasizing development of the whole student-athlete—not simply athletic performance.
Lead in the Classroom. Lead in Competition. Lead in Life.
