What Is Player Care?
Simply put player care is how clubs treat and support their athletes off the field.
Player care enables holistic development to compliment athletic growth.
Effective player care puts in place strategies to enhance on pitch performance by keeping the athletes focus on their game which in return helps to maximise financial returns for the club. This is done in a variety of ways through operational practises, personal development opportunities and of course welfare and safeguarding.
We are able to help your organisation in becoming better off the pitch, so that the team are able to perform better on it.
Our Services:
-
Strategy
Player care is relatively new industry so that’s why we are here to assist you in creating and implementing a programme that is bespoke to your organisation’s needs. There is no one size fits all but we want to help you find the best approach for your specific requirements.
-
Personal Development and Career Coaching
Unfortunately sporting careers don’t last forever. Which means that 100% of athletes will ‘go pro’ in something else. We can assist you in helping your athletes along that journey by encouraging them to follow their passions and explore who they are away from sport.
-
Workshops
We offer workshops tailored to your teams needs. On topics such as financial literacy, nutrition, social media, life skills and mental wellbeing.
-
Onboarding & Offboarding
When athletes join or leave a club they need specialised support for their unique circumstances. We can assist you in building programmes that help your talent settle quicker and also continue to support them when they leave the club.
-
Mental Health and Wellbeing
We recognise that mental health and wellbeing support is essential to achieve high performance. We are here to support you with early intervention, signposting and helping to increase awareness.
-
Transition Management and Support
Life often throws unexpected challenges at us. We can assist you to put in place strategies that support your athletes so that off field changes in their personal lives don’t impact on pitch performance.
