Two Nova Southeastern University student-athletes have been selected to participate in the prestigious NCAA Career in Sports Forum, June 2-5 at the governing body’s national office.

Tennis junior Klaudia Boczova (Bratislova, Slovakia) and junior men’s swimmer Victor Tarin (Godelleta, Spain) were nominated and selected by a national committee from a massive list of applicants. Only about 200 leaders on their campus were invited to participate.

According to the NCAA press release, the forum “provides college athletes with a broader scope of the career tracks available within the sports business, with the primary focus on college athletics. The forum provides student-athletes interactive experiences with successful individuals in the sports business and a peek into their day-to-day duties and responsibilities.”

The speakers and panelists at this year’s event include LaChina Robinson, former women’s basketball player at Georgia Tech and current TV analyst; Stevie Baker-Watson, director of athletics at DePauw University; and Craig McPhail, vice president of athletics and club sports at Lees-McRae College.

Additionally, the participants also learn best practices for gaining employment and gathering a better understanding of what future expectations will be once they get a job in sports at the Next Steps Fair, hosted in the NCAA Hall of Champions.

“We are excited for Klaudia and Victor to attend the NCAA Career in Sports Forum next month in Indianapolis,” said Associate Director of Athletics Kelley Kish. “The opportunity for our student-athletes to take part in the NCAA Leadership Development program designed for them to pursue their professional goals after graduation is very special.”
