Programs and Pathways

Schools Engagement Program

Build productive, sustainable partnerships with schools and educational institutions to create a regular pipeline of future participants.

Schools and educational institutions are critical partners in identifying future participants, giving them opportunities to try an activity and helping them transition into club programs, pathways and competitions. The Schools Engagement Program creates the interruptive moment that can introduce new participants to your club.

Where the opportunity sits

A strong schools program focuses on the people who may not otherwise have found their way into your club.

1

Existing participants

People who were always likely to participate because of an existing interest or connection.

2

Participants we can introduce

People who can discover and experience the activity through the right opportunity.

3

Outside the current market

People who are unlikely to participate because opportunity and interest may never converge.

Three connected program elements

From planning to delivery and funding, the program supports both the design and implementation of a sustainable schools pathway.
