Life Readiness & Mental Health Program: Empowering Athletes Beyond the Field

As part of the Second Chance Elite Football Showcase, every player participates in a powerful 6-week development series designed to strengthen the mind, body, and future. This is more than football...this is life preparation.

Week 1 – Mental Health & Mindset

Athletes learn how to manage emotions, reduce stress, build confidence, and understand how mental health impacts performance, relationships, and decision-making.

Week 2 – Life After Football & Career Pathways

We explore career options outside of sports, connect passions to professions, and help players envision success in any industry.

Week 3 – Financial Literacy

From budgeting and banking to credit, investments, and business basics, this session builds smart money habits for long-term success.

Week 4 – Community Outreach & Giving Back

Players give back to local neighborhoods and learn how service, leadership, and legacy go hand in hand.

Week 5 – College Preparation

This week focuses on NCAA requirements, applications, scholarships, essay writing, eligibility, and student-athlete life at the next level.

Week 6 – Mentorship Day

Each athlete is paired with a mentor, athlete, entrepreneur, or community leader who can offer wisdom, guidance, and support for their journey ahead.
