Helping adolescent girls be the best version of themselves.

SOAR: West Coast Eagles Wellbeing Series for Youth Girls fosters the development of skills, knowledge and strategies for the adolescent girls we meet. Our aim is to promote healthy attitudes and practices that will lead young women to take responsibility for their own wellbeing and discover how good they can be. We believe our outstanding female role models (AFLW players and West Coast Eagles staff) will inspire them to continue to be physically active.

Four (4) interactive modules are presented in our classrooms at Mineral Resources Park, Lathlain or at your school or community club to suit your timetable. You can choose all 4 modules, single modules or any combination that suits your needs.

The wellbeing principles covered are keys to striving to be the best version of yourself no matter whether your passion is music, acting, sport or academic. It’s about excellence in preparation to be your best and grow your confidence. All modules are aligned with current curriculum outcomes.

SOAR Regional: The SOAR program is delivered into regional Western Australia thanks to the support of BHP, including through both the Pilbara and Goldfields region.

4. Body Image + Impact of Menstrual Cycle on Performance (1 hour)

  • We focus on being confident in your body and embracing changes that occur with physical training
