The Price of Being a Student Athlete (How to avoid embarrassing your school, family and yourself)
This presentation is one that every student athlete must hear. Student athletes are making the newspaper with increasing regularity, but unfortunately they are appearing in the wrong section of the paper. Instead of the sports pages, they are frequently being mentioned in the area that lists arrests and court appearances. Aaron shares with students the realities of being a student athlete and how the "rules" are different for them compared to other students, and how by failing to abide by the rules almost assures embarrassment and blown opportunities.

Presentation Outcomes:
-Student athletes will be equipped with decision-making strategies to help them avoid making bad choices.
-Student athletes will be encouraged to steer clear of places/people where negative situations could quickly arise.
-Student athletes will be reminded that participating in sports is a privilege and should never be taken lightly or for granted.
