The TEDx Talk I delivered last October
📝 NEWSLETTER
Back in October, I had a chance to deliver a TEDx talk in Fayetteville, AR (where I live).
It was an incredible experience, and I’m really grateful for all the people who helped make it happen (see a long list of thank-yous here).
The talk is about the missing ingredient in youth sports (as coaches, I’m sure you can guess what it is), and the 3 things I believe we need to do to put that missing ingredient back into sports for our children.
If you’re like me, your life was shaped in sports, and your passionate about using sport to shape the lives of others.
Too many young athletes drop out of sports and miss out on all the life-long benefits of participation.
I think we (the adults) can do better.
I hope you’ll give it a watch and let me know what you think!
Just reply to this email with your thoughts.
