🏀 **INTRODUCING: THE POWER OF THE STUDENT ATHLETE**

There’s more to developing a student-athlete than what happens on the basketball court.

At the DAE Foundation, part of our mission is helping parents understand the journey including what their child needs **now**, what comes **next**, and how to prepare for the transition from elementary school to middle school, high school and beyond.

That’s why we’re excited to introduce our new educational series:

**THE POWER OF THE STUDENT ATHLETE (POSA)**

Through POSA, we’ll share practical information for parents and student-athletes at every stage of development, from building fundamentals and a love for the game to preparing for higher levels of competition, academics, recruiting and exposure.

📚 Elementary School
🏀 Middle School
🎓 High School & Beyond

And you don’t have to be part of one of our in-person programs to benefit. POSA is designed to bring DAE’s education and guidance to families wherever they are.

Because when parents understand the process, they’re better equipped to help their student-athletes navigate it.

Stay tuned for the first installment of **The Power of the Student Athlete.**

**Train hard. Plae harder.**

As alwaes, thank you for your time and have a great DAE! 🏀
