Grit & Guidance: A Confidence, Leadership & Resilience Workshop with Lindsey Vonn Foundation and Winter Sports School for Grades 3-5

The Youth Sports Alliance, Lindsey Vonn Foundation, and Winter Sports School are excited to once again partner for Grit & Guidance, an interactive workshop designed to help students build confidence, resilience, and leadership skills both on and off the field of play.  Grounded in the Lindsey Vonn Foundation’s social-emotional learning curriculum, participants will engage in hands-on activities, small-group discussions, and guided reflection as they explore what it means to navigate challenges, persevere through setbacks, build healthy relationships, and lead with confidence. Each workshop is co-facilitated by Lindsey Vonn Foundation Youth Ambassadors and Winter Sports School student mentors, creating a supportive, near-peer environment where students can learn from young leaders with shared experiences.  To better support students at different developmental stages, this year’s workshops will be offered as two separate sessions:  Grades 3–5 | October 2 | 3:15–5:00 PM & Grades 6–8 | October 9 | 3:15–5:00 PM.  All participants will receive a welcome bag and a guided reflection journal to continue building confidence, resilience, and leadership beyond the workshop.
