The Athlete Representative Workshop (ARW) teaches athletes the skills required to become an effective Athlete Representative on the Local Committee.
 
The Athlete Representatives on each local committee helps to gather input from Special Olympics BC's athlete- base, to communicate ideas, concerns, recommendations, and questions from athletes in the local to the local committee, and to communicate information from the local committee back to athletes.
 
Athletes attend the ARW training with a Mentor Coach. The Mentor Coach provides the Athlete Representative with ongoing, follow-up support in:
  • Preparing for local meetings.
  • Staying informed before, during and after the meetings.
  • Setting up meetings with the Head Coach and athletes in each sport.
  • Creating an appropriate means of communicating with athletes from all programs in the local.
