IMG Academy, the global leader in sports education, and Nord Anglia Education, one of the leading international school organizations, have recently launched the first phase of a worldwide sports and wellbeing collaboration. The announcement was made that student-athletes can participate in IMG Academy sports camps this summer and winter at four specific Nord Anglia campuses worldwide.
The IMG Academy sports camps, previously held on its Bradenton, Florida campus, will be delivered to children in grades 12-18 utilizing the school’s top-notch sports and mental performance curriculum. The sports elements of the camps cover both football and basketball, including technical training, advanced techniques, games, and competitions, and a wellbeing element covering confidence, resilience, commitment, working under pressure, and focus. The camps are open to Nord Anglia and non-Nord Anglia student-athletes in each region. Sign up on the IMG Academy website to learn more about the camps. Barcelona, Mexico City, and Houston’s camps will take place this summer, while Dubai’s will take place later this year, with dates announced shortly.
The camps are just one part of the collaboration between IMG Academy and Nord Anglia Education, which provides opportunities for student-athletes globally to access IMG Academy’s world-renowned sports and wellbeing programmes. The two organizations are also collaborating on an enhanced sports programme for Nord Anglia’s 80,000+ students, focusing on wellbeing, resilience, confidence, teamwork, and leadership.
As part of the partnership, IMG Academy has been actively piloting its IMG Academy+ mental performance and nutrition coaching product at Nord Anglia schools worldwide. In turn, Nord Anglia is working with IMG Academy to enhance and diversify its academic curriculum, develop new staff pathways, and integrate best practices into teaching and learning for student-athletes. This collaborative effort is a testament to its commitment to providing the best sports education possible.
IMG Academy’s comprehensive approach to education supports the complete student-athlete development journey. From its sports-focused boarding school to sports camps, online coaching, and online college recruiting services, we cater to over 100,000 student-athletes. Last year alone, the platform’s on-campus and online products, NCSA College Recruiting and IMG Academy+, facilitated the placement of more than 30,000 student-athletes onto college sports rosters in the United States.
These initiatives aim to maintain IMG Academy’s standing as the world’s preeminent provider of comprehensive sports education, offering education on and off the field.
