The CoachingMinute is a tool to help you learn how to coach kids. It provides you with weekly insights into the mind and heart of kids so that we adults can adjust how we are communicating with them, what we are doing with them and what we are expecting of them.
We have a network of coaches, doctors and scientists helping make the complex real, simple, and understandable so that we can work with kids in the best way possible.
You may not agree with us. That's okay. But the things we talk about are real and based on evidence, not just a belief-based coaching of "this is what my experience was." Frankly, it is some of our past experiences or the way that our college coaches, or high school coaches treated us that are creating some of the biggest problems. The way you were treated in high school or college has little or no bearing on how you should be treating elementary and junior high aged kids.
We're about making a difference in the way we coach kids. 70% of kids drop out of youth sports by the age of 13. And the top three reasons are adults!
Isn't it time to change what we're doing? We think so!
