Meet our students
Balancing being an athlete and a student can get tricky. When our season starts, we’re in the club 3-4 days a week. The LEAP program is there to support you and make it manageable, and we’re so lucky to have La Trobe’s facilities.
I probably play or practice seven days a week. It’s definitely, definitely worth it – you get a lot of advantages with [LEAP], you get a lot of help whenever you need it. They’re always there. If you’re flying for tournaments and whatnot, they’re very accommodating.
