Download or read book The Collegiate Athlete at Risk written by Morris R. Council (III) and published by Information Age Publishing. This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are numerous books documenting the challenges of student athletes and presenting recommendations for academic success. They primarily focus on understanding the issues of student-athletes and recommendations are oftentimes overly simplistic, failing to explicitly provide interventions that can be executed by student-athlete support personnel. In addition, the topic of supporting student-athletes who are academically at risk and/or are diagnosed with high incidence disabilities has been overlooked by scholars resulting in few publications specifically focusing on providing strategies to the staff/personnel who serve these populations. The general target audience is college/university practitioners who interface with student-athletes who demonstrate academic and social risk in the realm of athletics. These stakeholders include but are not limited to: academic support staff, student athletes, parents, coaches, faculty/educators, counselors, psychologists, higher education administrators, student affairs professionals, disability services coordinators/personnel, as well as researchers who focus on education leadership, sports, and special education. All of these groups are likely to find this book attractive especially as they work with student-athletes who are at-risk for academic failure. Also, it is ventured that this book will become the staple text for the National Association of Academic Advisors (N4A), the official organization for all personnel who work in collegiate academic support and can be used by members of intercollegiate athletic associations to reform policies in place to support at-risk student-athletes.

Book excerpt: Elevating Your Potential is an inspiring, informative book designed to teach student athletes how to find the bigger purpose behind their sport and to equip them to succeed in college and beyond. Attending practices and competitions. Pursuing a degree. Living on your own. Preparing for the future. Once you enter college, you'll quickly realize that if you don't find a way to manage your student-athlete balance, you'll get burned out and something will fall behind. How do you prepare for this transition? Jeremiah Gaines, M. Ed, takes his combined experience as a Division 1 athlete and college educator to break down the different components of a college athlete's career and push student athletes to work for the bigger picture of college athletics. In this book, Gaines will discuss: the recruitment and application process, scholarships and choosing your school, money management on a college budget, the need to balance athletics with academics, how to be the best teammate on and off the field, and gathering the resources needed to succeed beyond college. No matter your chosen sport or future plans either in the world of business or as a professional athlete, college is meant to be a stepping stone to that future. With a thorough game plan on how to best prepare, communicate, and execute, you'll enter the college arena with a fast start and strong finish. A coach once told Gaines, "Most of the time, student athletes put all of their efforts into getting the chance to 'make it, ' but then once they're actually there, they're not prepared for it. Then the opportunity is gone before they even realize what happened." That's not going to be your story. You're not just going to make it-you're going to elevate above the competition and thrive.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the collegiate student athlete, there is an incredible rush that comes from the thrill of competing at the highest level, knowing the intense training and great sacrifices that it took to make it to the pinnacle of any sport. But then, within four or five years, it's over. For a select few, professional sport is the next step along the journey. But as the famous quote and commercial says "There are over 400,000 NCAA student-athletes, and most of us will go pro in something other than sports." The lights fade, and the "real world" beckons. This can be a difficult transition. Away from the structure of the college experience and the feeling of self-worth that they found in sports, many former student athletes struggle, and many are searching for a better way to live. This engaging, easy-to-read story will help former student athletes learn five simple steps to live a meaningful life after the lights.

Book excerpt: There are three main areas that all student-athletes must navigate in their first year: academic, athletic, and social. Successful navigation of the first-year will enhance the overall college experience and greatly increase the likelihood of graduation. Therefore, a smooth transition from high school to college is imperative for student-athletes who are attempting to manage these challenges. Winning at the College Level is a practical guide that provides student athletes with resources and tools to manage all aspects of their transition, including navigating the classroom, building relationships with teammates, nutrition, and sleep. Written based on the latest research and information provided by upperclass student-athletes, Winning at the College Level includes information specific to international and transfer student athletes and addresses the important topics of mental health and athletic identity. In addition, the College Survival Guide is a workbook that allows student-athletes to learn about themselves and develop skills that are essential to success in athletics, higher education, and life. Every first-year student (athlete or non-athlete) must become accustomed to life without parents and the increased academic requirements inherent to college; however the student-athlete must meet the challenging demands associated with college athletics. The goal of Winning at the College Level is to aid student-athletes in this transition, providing them with the resources and equipping them with the skills needed for success in the first year and beyond.
