The Knowing Self in Sport

Stronger Teams. Better Leaders. Real Impact.

Sport is more than competition. It’s where identity is shaped, values are tested, and lifelong lessons are learned. At The Knowing Self, we believe that the way we lead, train, and relate on the field deeply influences how we show up off it.

That’s why we work with sporting clubs, coaches, parents, and young athletes to create emotionally intelligent teams built on respect, connection, and courage.

Whether you're looking to improve team culture, support your coaching staff, or offer something meaningful to families, we tailor our sessions to suit your club’s goals and environment.

"The scoreboard doesn't build character. How we show up for each other does."
