Posted June 11, 2012 by jimhigley

If youth sports are so great for kids, why do so many children today end up burnt out and frustrated with their experience?

Today we’re talking to Shaun Goodsell from Mental Edge - a sports performance coach who works with athletes of all ages to help them achieve a higher level of performance – both in their sport and in life. Shaun also works extensively with parents to help them understand the critical role they play in making sure their kids have a positive experience with their sports.
