⛳⛳The 2020-21 program season wrapped up today with the final Golf Development training session. ⛳⛳

It was an absolute blast hanging out with the crew and seeing just how far they've progressed over the last 6 months.🏅🏅

Let's give a big round of applause for our golf athletes and coaches who've once again done the Academy proud with their positivity, determination and very witty banter! 👏👏👏
FYI, I'm a sucker for a clever joke. 😁

The NCAS Education Day in Ballina was a win all round thanks to the participation from our athletes, Interns and fantastic presenters.🥳🥳

Big thanks to our supporters for today’s event @yourlocalclub @ballinashirecouncil @tnraccounting @southerncrossuni

Jamie Hetherington was back in action, heading the Sport Psychology topic, teaching the athletes a thing or two about growth mindsets. 🧠

Adam Wade from @tnraccounting demonstrated the importance of managing your finances and appreciating just how much sport costs mum and dad.🤑🤑

Neil Chapman took them on a journey through Injury Prevention & Management 🤕 before having the @southerncrossuni Interns demonstrate an FMS overhead squat...Athletes were given the chance to use their "professional judgement" as to whether it was performed correctly or not.

Jodie Purves, ex-Australian cricketer, did a stellar job helping NCAS athletes understand how to navigate the world of ASADA/WADA and that "clean sport" is the only sport worth playing.🧑‍🔬🧑‍🌾

And last, but finally not least, D'Arcy and Claire tackled the "monster" that is Public Speaking and Social Media. Just quietly...we killed it. 🤫😎

The NCAS Education Day was a sea of blue in Coffs

The NCAS Education Day was a sea of blue in Coffs Harbour today.

Athletes delved deep into sport psychology with Jamie Hetherington from @southerncrossuni to find out what truly drives them and how to stay positive in the face of setbacks. They learned the importance of budgeting and money management with @tnraccounting, before jumping "head first" into a Concussion workshop with @sports_medicine_australia.

NCAS Cycling Head Coach Aaron Virieux taught them how to navigate the world of ASADA/WADA and their responsibilities as an athlete when it comes to what goes into their body. Finally, Britt Ramsey from @nbnnews showed them a thing or two about how to handle the media like a pro!

A huge thank you to all our athletes and special presenters for another fantastic NCAS Education Day!

Stay tuned for round 2 in Ballina on May 16th...
