fleete supports you!
We are excited to inspire the next generation of female athletes! Fleete pairs mentors and mentees based on common interests, career aspirations, and experiences. In doing so, we hope to create a comfortable and safe space for mentees and mentors to confidently discuss issues, concerns, aspirations, and advice on how to navigate the beauties of being a female athlete. Over the course of eight months, mentors and mentees will build a close connection through virtual communication and group events hosted by Fleete.
Mentorship is crucial in obtaining success. As a mentee in Fleete’s Mentorship program, you will gain the opportunity to connect with a mentor that will share important experiences with you to navigate your own path. Your mentor can help guide you through situations such as challenges with teammates, potential career preparation opportunities (or preparation for enrolling in college or high school), improving soft-skills (communication, networking, decision making). Mentors will offer up ideas around strategy and provide advice for maintaining social and wellness development. Our mentors are hand-picked and have diverse backgrounds within the sports industry, specifically in sports administration and semi-pro careers, entrepreneurship, healthcare , and entertainment. By participating in this program, mentors will inspire, motivate, and challenge you to open your mind and most importantly, will not judge your experiences. They will provide a safe space for you to learn, experiment and ask questions, no matter what.
Our mentorship program is open to female student-athletes in middle, high school, and college. The application below is strategically designed to capture information pertaining to your personality, your current sport you participate in, your goals and future aspirations in order to create the perfect match to your prospective mentor. Please ensure that you provide as much detail as possible to help us create a worthwhile connection for both you and your mentor!
The 2020-2021 Fleete Mentorship Program will kickoff on December 15, 2020!
Please submit your application by December 10, 2020

Middle School
The middle school mentorship program will focus on the all-around personal and social development of youth female athletes. Each month 10-12 youth student female athletes will meet virtually participating in group mentorship sessions. We will focus on specific areas such as positive body image, leadership, goal setting, healthy lifestyle habits, managing stress and expectations. Essentially, young girls will leave this program feeling empowered and having a better understanding of their self-worth.
High School
Between balancing academics, sport practices and competitions, and extra curricular activities, it’s imperative that youth female athletes have access to mentorship for guidance in achieving upward progression. Female student-athletes will meet monthly with their mentor to openly discuss address challenges that high schoolers encounter as well as having a positive transition into high school and college. Ultimately youth female athletes will further cultivate their leadership, positive self-talking skills, and will learn how to manage their academic workload and athletics.
College
Our college mentorship program focuses on navigating the transition from high school to college athletics and the ambiguity of post graduation. There is an emphasis on managing familial and social relationships, financial planning, and mental health wellness. The overarching goal is to address key challenges female athletes experience during their collegiate career and post-graduation.
