How is the athlete selected?

When a date is confirmed with the school, we start the recruitment process for athletes. We contact all athletes and ask for their availability on the specific date.

We then shortlist athletes based on the criteria set by the school, and provide schools with a list of athletes and their achievements. From this, the school can then decide which athlete they would to visit. Athletes In School will also make a recommendation based on athlete feedback from other schools they have visited.
