Leading up to the end of 2025, we’ve connected with students, school sport leaders, and coaches through a series of workshops and meetings across our youth community.
We began at Hobsonville Point Secondary School with the Empower You Workshop, an engaging session where students explored their strengths, built confidence, and reflected on what empowers them both in sport and everyday life. We then brought together sport leads for our Secondary School Sport Meeting, aligning on priorities, sharing insights, and strengthening collaboration to enhance the overall school sport experience. We wrapped up with the Coach Emerge Workshop, where coaches explored practical ways to create positive, athlete-centred environments and left with renewed energy, connection, and strategies to support young people.
Together, these sessions highlighted the power of shared learning, meaningful connection, and building environments where both students and coaches can thrive.
