WHY IT MATTERS

Sport involvement is a key pillar in youth development, and is especially powerful in helping young girls discover their sense of self. Rise workshops use both sport and outdoor adventure to develop six key pillars of wellness in youth.

Confidence

Confidence helps build assertive, positive, engaged, enthusiastic and persistent attitudes, all of which are helpful when facing challenges in sport and throughout life. 

Self Awareness

Self awareness is extremely helpful in understanding ones strengths and areas for growth. A true sense of self enhances communication and decision making skills and aids in emotional control.

​

Community 

Community not only enhances support and a sense of belonging, it also builds empathy, team building skills and meaningful connections. 

​

Leadership

Healthy communities are built by strong and thoughtful leaders. Developing leadership skills at a young age translates to improved team and group environments throughout life.

​

Resilience

One of the greatest tools, resilience allows one to navigate challenging situations with confidence and helps to bounce back from setbacks in sport and life. 

Growth 

A growth mindset lays at the very foundation of youth development as it drives the desire to build confidence, community, resilience, self awareness and leadership.
