Mentee - The Process
I Haven’t Received My Match Yet, What’s Wrong?
It may take some time before the screening process is complete as we want to ensure you are matched with the perfect mentor for you! If you have any concerns please contact Diving Australia Manager, Athlete Wellbeing and Engagement/Child Safe Sport
I Have Been Matched With My Mentor, Now What?
You have been matched with your mentor, fantastic!! We recommend you contact your mentor within the first week of being notified of your match, to introduce yourself and organise your very first mentoring session
Make it Yours
Take the time to have a think about why you have signed up for the DA Mentor Program and what you might like to learn from your mentor. Remember that mentors are not only great current/former athletes but have personal stories and experience as well.
Think about what questions you may have for your mentor before each session and go in prepared so you can maximise your mentor sessions. Be clear on your goals and what you might like to achieve. Feel free to use the DA SMART+ Goal template to guide you!
Stay Committed
We understand that life gets busy! If you are having difficulty contacting your mentor or have not received a response be sure to try again! If making contact with your mentor is proving difficult after several attempts or there is something not quite right, please reach out to Diving Australia Manager, Athlete Wellbeing and Engagement/Child Safe Sport
Keep in Touch
If you would like to make contact with your mentor outside of the five mentor program required sessions, reach out to your mentor via email – they will be happy to hear from you and how you are progressing outside of the allocated times.
