The program offers a unique blend of sports and healthcare, providing student-athletes with clinical shadowing, mentorship, and college readiness to explore careers in health sciences.
The Brooklyn Scholar Athletes with Academic Goals (BK-SWAG) program is a four-week summer initiative designed to introduce high school student-athletes to careers in healthcare and sports science. Participants engage in clinical shadowing, gaining firsthand knowledge about various health professions. The program includes workshops on health disparities, sports psychology, and nutrition, as well as interactive sessions with providers in sports-related healthcare fields. Students receive academic support, guidance, and mentorship, culminating in student-led research projects addressing health equity issues. The program also offers college readiness workshops, college tours, and free CPR certification. Through these activities, students develop leadership skills, teamwork, and a deeper understanding of the intersection between sports and healthcare.
A typical day involves full-day in-person sessions with workshops on health disparities, sports psychology, and nutrition, engaging with healthcare providers, and participating in clinical shadowing and college readiness activities.
This program is best for high school student-athletes interested in careers that combine healthcare and sports, who possess a strong work ethic, leadership skills, and a drive for excellence.
