I keep saying this but, it needs repeating. We have youth sports all wrong.

Dr James Andrews- “Athletes ages 14-and-under should have a two-month break with no organized leagues or intense training, Three to four would be better. Do conditioning, flexibility and strength work."

It’s official… I’m a student again! I will be taking 2 years of online classes through UW Whitewater to get my SPED Teaching license! I’m excited, nervous, and now really need to prioritize my time. #Warhawks #NeverTooLate

What does every high school sport need? Athletes? Coaches? Fans? Yes!

But there’s one more essential member of the lineup: High school officials! They deserve kudos for making every game, match and meet possible! Join them today! #BecomeAnOfficial https://t.co/hjw7j4hp0k

#LEAD

[Jon Beck @CoachJonBeck]

One thing missing in so many programs today is the development of leadership. Kids have a hard time leading because they’re used to having adults control everything. We have to give up some control for leadership to develop. It’s hard for many adults, but very necessary for kids!

[WIAA @wiaawi]

Have you ever thanked high school officials for their service? For their commitment to the game? For their positive influence in students’ lives? They deserve a pat on the back for all they do! Sign up and join them today! #BecomeAnOfficial https://t.co/kLK9CfKUog

If you’ve got a daughter, sister, niece, granddaughter, etc…Get them involved in a good S&C program.

I saw 7th grade girls practicing their squat technique at 7:45am this morning, 15 minutes before their 8am training session started. It matters to them.
