Ask young people in your networks to take part in this exciting opportunity to connect with Scottish athletes competing at forthcoming Major Games
Ever wondered what athletes do when they’re off camera? Are they superhuman even in their down time or are they just like us? How do they feel when they’re competing? Do they have a lucky mascot?
As Scotland’s athletes prepare to perform on the world stage at the Winter Olympics, Paralympics and Commonwealth Games in 2018, we at sportscotland will be out across the country in the next few months interviewing these extraordinary people and finding out what makes them tick.
Which is where YOU come in. What would you like to #AskAnAthlete?
It can be anything from the food they eat to the telly they watch to the role models they look up to. We are looking to create a list of 10 questions that we will pose to the athletes and then we will use the answers to create a series of videos that we will promote through social media as the 2018 Games approach.
The authors of the 10 questions that make the cut will have their names featured in the videos.
And you might even get the chance to #AskAnAthlete in person.
How to join in?
Social media – Use #AskAnAthlete on Twitter to send us your question/s. Try and include who exactly the question is from – first name, age, school/club/community sport hub.
