The unfortunate reality about the travel ball and camp system for high school sports is that it’s usually too late when parents realize their son/daughter would have benefited more from strength and speed development than playing 15-20 more games.
"Coach, what can I do for [insert minor injury]?"
3️⃣ questions:
1. How much sleep did you get last night?
2. How much water have you drank since yesterday's practice?
3. What did you eat for breakfast?
If you're 0-for-3 on these, you don't REALLY care about getting better.
Things I find weird: Coaches who hoard players from multiple sports.
Things I love: How all of @DwyerAthletics coaches collaborate to give every kid, every chance.
