Hayleigh Blair
Started at age 10
Background: Great-granddaughter of water skiing's great ambassador Banana George Blair.
Challenge: Like most 10-year-olds, all she wanted to do was play. Her dream was more of a wish than a structured goal.
Process: Through games that developed skills, she was 'Doing It' and gaining experience. As she improved, she gained control through 'Thinking' and her belief in achieving her dream grew.
Result: In her last National Championships, she achieved personal bests in every event and made the U.S. National Junior Team.
"The program taught me how to turn my love for water skiing into real achievements. I learned that having fun and achieving goals can go together!"
