Coaching, Competition, Caterpillars & Cats - A random conversation on youth sport with Nick Leve
A slight change of pace in this episode. I am joined by regular contributor, Nick Levett who unloads his brain with me on all manner of topics related to the youth port experience.
In this episode we cover:
What is the point of coaching for kids? Is it actually doing them any good?
Is adult risk aversion ruining play for children.
Why formal competition for youngsters should be banned.
Why adult conceptions of what should feature in a child's sport experience may be destroying their enjoyment and harming their chances of progression.
Practical methods to enable children to develop skills through games using an approach called 'Playperation'
And so much more....
Hope you enjoy
