The final years of school bring pressure, competing priorities and decisions about what comes next. Josh and Nathan share their experiences of pursuing elite sport alongside education, facing disappointment and adapting when a plan changes.
The presentation connects those experiences to the choices students are making now: setting goals that matter to them, managing their time and taking a next step without needing every part of the future worked out.
Subjects include:
- Turning a longer-term goal into manageable actions.
- Responding when a result or opportunity does not go to plan.
- Balancing study, sport, friendships and other commitments.
- Preparing for change and making decisions with incomplete information.
- Recognising when support or a different approach would help.
The focus is on realistic decisions students can apply to their own circumstances, whether their interests lie in sport, further study, work or another path.
