We all see issues with volunteer youth coaches who want to make a difference but become frustrated. Their visions of success paired with a passion for teaching the game erodes when it doesn’t work out just as they expected. The frustration leads to shouting at officials, expressions of disgust and coaching stops. They no longer are the role model you want for your kids. Kids who need to learn how to work with others and grow.
Be Part of the Solution
We need to be focused on making sports a positive experience for all kids. Together we can turn frustration and failure into learning opportunities. Please help be part of the solution.
Play My Kid Framework
The Play My Kid Framework is a mechanism to help you break down situations you see that make you feel uneasy or know can be handled more effectively. The purpose of the framework is to give you the tools to identify the issue, recognize the change and communicate the solution. The framework will help you, as parents:
- Why are these situations so uncomfortable?
- Is there a better way to handle these situations?
- What can parents do to improve youth sports?
