Coaching Youth Sports

This book is a quick read dealing with so many of the issues that are a part of youth sports today. Sometimes entertaining and humorous, this book is intended to be a reminder of the things we as parents should already know but sometimes lose sight of. Written in such a way that it makes it easy for us as parents to take a look at ourselves and find areas we can improve upon to make our time in youth sports more enjoyable for both child and parent. It can also serve as a way to confirm and encourage us to continue to do all the things we may be doing right. Youth sports has so much to offer...

Every parent dreams of their child falling in love with sports, and when the opportunity to coach a team arises, many of us leap at the chance without hesitation. However, as the season progresses—or sometimes just before it begins—we often find ourselves realizing that we might not have a clue what we’re doing.

The focus of this book is to provide you, the listener, with best practices for working with youth and athletes outside of the classroom environment. There are too many kids and athletes not receiving the support they need mentally, academically, behaviorally, and emotionally.
