#AthleteForLife –  that is the focus of the upcoming book by Board President Omari Faulkner.   With balanced preparation, the academic and athletic skills of a young athlete can transcend boundaries… the skills and dedication used honing ones athletic craft, when applied to academics and other aspects of the student athlete experience create a formula for lifelong success.  By providing a framework for developing the new student athlete, where focus on the student is as significant as the athlete beginning in the high school years and early, this book will create a new blueprint for success.  Being successful doesn’t end on the court or field, it’s the game of life.

O Street International has always promoted sports diplomacy because we believe it is a successful way to connect people and build bridges.  Sports creates skills that break boundaries because it harnesses skills that are truly life skills.  We have used our programs to promote the use of sports to build strong communities, encourage social and community engagement, and to develop leadership.  #AthleteForLife, is about learning the tools for success… We are on board, how about you?
