THE GAME WITHIN

Athletes United

SupportING athletes aged 10+ through mental health challenges, academic pursuits & life coaching

We address the underrated, undervalued, and underfunded aspects surrounding mental health and vital supports. By aggressively dismantling stigmas, our services provide a unique membership experience that is tailored to athletes, parents, care-partners and coaches.

FOR ATHLETES, WITH ATHLETES.

Athletes United’s professional care providers and registered practitioners must have various, specialized levels of experiences in athletics. This revolutionary strategy ensures a nuanced understanding of the complex pressures athletes face, spanning from recreational levels to the pinnacle of Olympic or Professional competition. We pride ourselves on tailored, empathetic support that transcends conventional approaches by addressing the multifaceted challenges athletes encounter throughout their journey.

Up To The Challenge

At Athletes United, we’re addressing The Game Within. We know that many athletes experience a wide variety of challenges throughout their athletic journey. Throughout time, there has been a highly disproportionate concentration on the physical side of that journey.

PARENTS & CARE-PARTNERS

Your athlete has intense academic pressure on top of increasingly rigorous training schedules that require meticulous planning and unwavering dedication. Your athlete has peer and family expectations that add layers of complexity. Social media and its omnipresent gaze, introduces a dimension of pressure that previous generations of athletes did not face.

Athletes United consists of a team approach towards holistic well-being. FOR athletes, WITH athletes, devoted professionals tend to the mental, social, educational and emotional needs of your athlete so they can reach their full potential. Familiar with athletic demands themselves, the Athletes United personnel mission extends beyond the scoreboard, focussed on fostering resilience, emotional intelligence, and self-care within the community.

PRACTITIONERS

Athletes United’s intention is for its professional care providers and registered practitioners to have various, intricate levels of experiences in athletics. In order to ensure the nuanced understanding of the complex pressures athletes face, spanning from recreational levels to the pinnacle of Olympic or Professional competition that we promise, we’re looking for practitioners to provide tailored, empathetic support that transcends conventional approaches by addressing the multifaceted challenges athletes encounter throughout their journey.

The success of Athletes United depends on an integrated web of dedicated, passionate personnel. The registered practitioners who make up the eventual team are integral to our mission of prioritizing mental health as the key component of athletic development.

INVESTORS

Our Athletes United Management Team, investors, registered practitioners and sponsors will unite to smash that stigma and honour the fact that athletic performance is directly impacted by such factors as time demands, parental pressure, leaving home at an early age, peer pressures, difficulties with developing friendships/relationships, financial hardships, lacking family support, injuries and chronic health conditions.

Athletes United presents a unique business model by establishing community-based communication channels for all athletes, with professionals who have walked the talk. By employing individuals with a high athletic IQ, Athletes United brand will address mental health, injury support, career transitions, social adjustment, parental guidance, job placement, educational support and substance abuse.
