Streamline Athletes Ambassadors Competing in Tokyo
We are beyond excited to share that eight of our athlete ambassadors have been selected to compete at the Tokyo Olympic Games! Our amazing ambassadors will be joined by our very own Partnerships Coordinator Natalia Hawthorn, who qualified for Team Canada in the women’s 1500m.
We watched records fall and Olympic trials take place over the last few weeks and we hope you are ready for even more action, because these athletes are going to put on a show that the entire world is ready to watch.
Here at Streamline Athletes we are all about helping athletes reach their potential, and it has been fascinating to hear from our ambassadors about how different their paths have been to achieving their Olympic dreams. Some went straight to D-I schools out of High School, others went to smaller colleges then transferred into larger programs, some went to faith-based schools, and some focused on academic programs when making their University selection. The one thing they have in common is that they made choices that were best for them, and they all found the right coaches, teammates, and educational/athletic balance to support their long-term development.
This ability to find the right fit is exactly what we want to help all young athletes do. You can read more about how our platform works and our ambassador's journey to the Games by checking out our website [streamlineathletes.com].

Each ambassador collaborates with Streamline Athletes on initiatives to engage with youth runners, jumpers, and throwers. Throughout the year, track fans can expect to find content across the ambassadors’ and Streamline Athletes’ social media channels, on our blog, and in other virtual formats as well. It’s our hope that the paths taken by some of the world’s most elite athletes inspire more younger athletes to pursue higher education and sport beyond high school.
