The Changing the Game Project has released its Top 5 blog posts of 2015. Each article is a gem of insight and understanding of youth sports. If you are not familiar with the Changing the Game Project, we encourage you to follow them as they are probably the best youth sports improvement organization in the country. We had the opportunity to interview their founder, John O'Sullivan earlier this year and gained first-hand insight how their program started and key steps that parents, coaches and players can make to "change the game."
Here are the Top 5 blog post from the Changing the Game Project.
1. Why Kids Quit Sports
2. The Perils of Single-Sport Specialization
3. Myths that are Destroying the Youth Sports Experience for Our Kids
4. The #1 Quality of Great Teammates
5. The Enemy of Excellence in Youth Sports
In addition to reading these wonderful blog posts, you might want to pick up a copy of John O'Sullivan's book, Changing the Game. It's an amazing read and should be a mandatory resource book for all coaches and parents involved in youth sports.
