Coaches don’t just coach athletes. We diagnose mysteries. Because every team has The Kid Who’s Injured But Not Injured. They limp during warmups. Walk normal to the water. Sprint fine when they forget. Then limp again when you look at them. Is it pain? Is it fear? Is it a bad

Every coach has that kid whose bathroom needs follow one simple equation: Bathroom Probability = (Workout Intensity²) × (Fear of Fatigue) Recovery day? 0%. Moderate progression run? Maybe 10%. Speed Endurance reps? 100% “Coach, my stomach hurts.” These kids never have

Being a high school multi-sport athlete should be encouraged, not discouraged. As a varsity coach, I support players competing in other sports. The problem isn’t multi-sport participation—it’s coaches expecting year-round priority. That’s control, not development.

Cody Cameron I’m grateful to be at a place where our HC and AD both push for football players to run track. 7 of our 11 starters on defense ran track, the others wrested or played rugby. I’d say it turned out pretty well for those 4x100 guys too🤷🏻‍♂️

This is one reason why HS distance running is so deep right now. 50-55 mpw for the typical HS boy wasn’t that typical in the 90/00’s.

Like many others, been saying it for years. Anyone who discourages your child from playing multiple sports does not have your child’s best interests in mind. Period.

Year round single sport specialization benefits the adults who can make money off of it at the expense of the child’s development.

Behind every state championship banner is a group of kids who learned that mediocrity doesn’t cut it, accountability is earned, and success is shared. Winning is just the byproduct.

A sports specialization study at UCLA found that 88% of NCAA Division I athletes played an average of two to three sports growing up. I spoke with a Sioux Falls athlete and trainer who have seen the direct impacts of the multi-sport experience.
