    This article examines the impact of positional leadership on secondary school captains in a group of 'like schools' in Queensland, Australia.

The study suggests that through the status and responsibilities associated with the position and the self-awareness that grows during school captaincy, the young person is likely to experience deepening maturity more quickly than might otherwise be the case.
