Student Athletes, welcome to GameChange! GameChange was created to help with you developing a strong and healthy mindset that will help you succeed and have joy in all aspects of your life. We hope you join and participate in our community with our collective goal of making the world a better place through the power of sports.
There are various ways that you can participate below:
GameChange co-founder, Paul McDonald, a former All-American and NFL quarterback, has assembled a team of neuroscientists, psychologists, coaches, athletes, educators, recruiters, and other experts to create a slate of Mindset Training Camps designed to empower student athletes with positive mindset and mental health tools.
Many of the Mindset Training Camps include worksheets to help you self-reflect on things happening in your own life. The worksheet includes writing prompts that are similar to the ones for college application essays and so as you work on building a stronger mindset you are also prepping for your college application.
The Livestream Forums tackle many of the same subjects as the Mindset Training Camps, but are streamed live for interaction so that students can ask questions and provide input on their own experience related to the topic. In addition to professional experts, GameChange plans to invite current and former college and pro athletes to join the forums.
Do you have an inspirational or empowering story that you’d like to tell? GameChange is striving to be a company that empowers students to have a voice. We urge students to submit their videos or submit written word stories with the ones chosen appearing on GameChange’s website, social media, or newsletter. All students whose work is distributed will receive a letter from GameChange for their resume, identifying them as GameChange published content creators.
The clubs include various programs throughout the year that are designed to create a joyful campus where all athletes look out for each other and the focus on we is much greater than me. It is an inclusive environment where athletes encourage and help each other to grow – a place where everyone feels like they belong. Simply designate yourself @GameChange Athlete on your social media pages and seek out your Campus Ambassador to join in the programs. If you don’t have a Campus Ambassador, go here to apply to become one.
