The first time I coached a youth sports team I had to look all over the Internet for the information and equipment I needed to start. I found everything eventually but I wasted a lot of time. Because of my experience, I decided to start this site to help youth sports coaches and players get the fundamentals they need to succeed!

For coaches, I present tools that will help you not only improve the fundamentals of your players but also teach them valuable life lessons. Less than 2% of kids will ever play on their high school team and less than 0.05% of them are likely to ever play sports professionally. However, 100% of your athletes will face other challenges in sports, school, work and life where the work ethic and mental skills you teach them can be applied. You have the opportunity to teach valuable lessons to your youth sports athletes even if you never coach a single one that plays at the high school, college, or professional level!

I highly recommend all coaches read one of the excellent books from the Positive Coaching Alliance such as The Double-Goal Coach. The book provides some excellent tools that will help you go beyond wins and losses to teach your players life lessons.

Above all, remember that youth sports are supposed to be fun!
