Win The Youth Sports Game objectively narrates how ordinary kids can progress, survive and thrive within today’s $20 billion, youth-sports industrial complex.
The sixteen-year developmental trek from toddler to collegiate athlete is chronicled while juxtaposing more than 50 challenges that athletes in all sports may have to endure and overcome. The unfortunate outcome is that more than 75 percent of kids quit sports by age fourteen, with we over zealous adults being a big contributor.
