All presentations are specific to the experiences of the individual athlete that is delivering the presentation. As a standard however presentations follow a specific structure and answer the following questions:

Who is the athlete? (Athlete & student icebreaker)
What is the athlete’s sporting background?

Sports specific presentations

Presentations normally last 1 hour, however schools have the option to either lengthen or shorten this timeframe.

We recommend a minimum of 30 minutes for a presentation, so that athletes can deliver all the information clearly and effectively.

Athlete presentations can take place in any school hall that has the facility of a laptop and projector.

If the school wants a presentation without a PowerPoint, this can then be delivered in any hall.

Alternatively, schools are also given the option of classroom presentations. These involve an athlete presenting to smaller groups of students in a classroom.

As the athlete presentation is on a PowerPoint, schools are asked to provide athletes with a laptop and projector.  Although not essential, if schools could also provide a clicker, this would be ideal.

Athletes will bring the PowerPoint presentation on a memory stick. (A copy of this will also be stored on our company Dropbox, in case of an emergency.

In an assembly style format there is no restriction on the number of students in the presentation.

Our athletes are also more than comfortable to present at parent evenings, award ceremonies, and after school events.

For a classroom presentation however, we ask that groups are kept smaller as for health ad safely reasons we require all students to be sat down during the presentation.
