ABOUT OUR FREE EDUCATION PROGRAM

The Future Hall of Famers Education Program is aimed at inspiring and motivating our youth by sharing stories of our sport heroes, free of charge, year-round. We travel the province far and wide to send positive messages of goal setting, overcoming obstacles, triumph and defeat. After hearing these stories, we hope our youth will believe that anything is possible, even if you come from a small province like Nova Scotia. We are very fortunate to have our sport heroes work with us on this initiative because it’s about more then sport. It’s about the life skills that you need to succeed and the power of positive thinking.

The current program is tailored for grades 4 to 8 but can be catered to meet the needs for different age groups. There are two options for a presentation:

Onsite Presentation
