WPA Athlete Wellbeing Snapshot - Water Polo Australia

WPA aims to ensure that we support our national athletes who have shown dedication and commitment to the sport whilst also pursuing their career during their time in high-performance sport and life afterwards.

The athlete snapshot is a tool that allows WPA to allocate resources to key areas of wellbeing support as well as informing the AIS of HP system resourcing requirements.

The athlete wellbeing snapshot results will also form the basis of life plans that will sit alongside individual athlete performance plans.

For athletes under 18 years, please complete this survey with your parent(s)/guardian.

This survey is conducted in accordance with our Data Collection Privacy Policy
