Future Champions
Sport Taranaki facilitates the Future Champions programme, an initiative aimed at recognising, acknowledging and supporting the development of young Taranaki athletes aged 15 – 18 years of age. Future Champions provides mentoring, personal development sessions and comprehensive workshops to assist those talented athletes selected for the programme to fulfill their potential.
The programme covers nutrition, strength and conditioning, the media, sports psychology and much more. If you know a young athlete who would benefit from joining the Future Champions programme please encourage them to put in an application. Athletes go through a interview process in March and once selected will remain in the programme till the end of December.
