Our Iona Talented Athlete Program (ITAP) is aimed at developing the talents of young regional sportspeople by utilising a unique coaching style that is usually only offered in metropolitan areas.
ITAP will develop the knowledge, attitudes and skills that will help young athletes to reach their full sporting and personal potential.
