The Athlete Confidential
Welcome to The Athlete Confidential where we believe that we are humans first, and athletes second. Stories by athletes for athletes that focus on topics coaches don't always discuss at practice. We are not here to talk about performance goals, training plans or game tactics... well maybe a little, but, our main focus is to cover topics outside of training and performance. Rather we aim to encourage conversations about mental health, abuse, relationships, education, equality and much more. At The Athlete Confidential we seek to empower the human within every athlete.
