The Growing with Gratitude Elite Sports program and workshops build and protect young athlete’s mental well-being. We do this by teaching skills through sport based on gratitude, kindness, empathy, positive reflection and service + self-awareness and ownership, resulting in greater resilience and happiness. We help do this during training sessions and matches. Furthermore, we are teaching athletes the skills to move forward from adversity and challenges, as well as teaching them to be good citizens.
