A landmark day for women in baseball and another Diamond Dream achieved.
Jen Pawol is donating the cap she wore in her @MLB umpiring debut to the Hall of Fame.
If your youth wrestling coach is cursing at your athletes, you need to find a new room.
I just spent a few days at Oklahoma State, one of the most talented rooms in college wrestling. I didn’t hear a single curse word delivered by leadership during practice.
The best coaches in the country, coaching the best athletes in the country — with the most on the line.
Now ask yourself, if the best coaches aren’t using that type of language with 20-year-olds, does it make sense to use it when addressing your 10-year-old sons and daughters?
Negative energy is contagious, and so is the language. It’s tough to build someone up while belittling them at the same time. If you want your kids to be empowered, allow them to be led by coaches in control of their own emotions.
Treat your wrestlers with dignity, and you get the most from them.
Foul language has no place in youth sports.
