Legacy Link- Connect with Mentors

Legacy Link- Connect with Mentors

Becoming an athlete is incredibly hard without a mentor. New players face the challenge of navigating their careers and making tough decisions, often without guidance. Meanwhile, many retired athletes feel lost and without purpose. Their years of wisdom and experience are going to waste, with no one to share them with.

This is where our app, "Legacy Link" comes in. It's a win-win. Young athletes get priceless advice from those who've been there, helping them avoid career mistakes. In return, retired players find a new purpose by sharing their wisdom and staying connected to the game.

 

Solving Problem:

  1. It connects aspiring athletes directly with experienced veterans, providing guidance they can't get elsewhere.
  2. It gives retired athletes a new, fulfilling purpose by allowing them to share their knowledge and stay involved in their sport.
  3. It ensures the valuable wisdom and experience of one generation of athletes is passed on to the next, benefiting the entire sports community.

 

Benefits:

Young Athletes:

  1. Form a crucial connection that can open doors to new opportunities in the sports world.
  2. Receive firsthand advice on training, nutrition, and the mental aspects of the game from someone who has been there.
  3. Learn from a mentor's past failures and avoid common pitfalls, saving time and money.

Retired Athletes: 

  1.  Regain a sense of meaning and identity by staying connected to the sport they love.
  2. Have a fulfilling activity that utilizes their vast experience and knowledge.
  3. Contribute to the next generation of athletes, ensuring their legacy lives on.

 

This problem matters to me because when I started playing basketball, I was very new and unsure how to grow in the sport. While my coach provided excellent guidance, I know that many aspiring athletes struggle to find proper mentorship. This app is a way to ensure that young athletes have easy access to the kind of experienced guidance that is so critical for success, helping them connect with retired professionals who can share their invaluable wisdom.

  • This is a fantastic initiative that addresses a real gap for both young and retired athletes. I’m curious—how will the app ensure that a given mentor is truly the right fit for each athlete? Will the platform enable not just online advice but also local, face-to-face coaching? Matching based on locality, experience, and personality could make the connections far more impactful.

    • The app would match athletes and mentors based on their profiles. Athletes share what help they need, mentors share their strengths, and the app suggests the best pairings for useful, supportive connections.
