Ruth Brennan Morrey asked our son what he believes is the culprit for his jump in swim performance. He said “I just listen to my dad. He tells me to eat and sleep. That’s about it.” He’s wicked smart but what sets him apart is he’s a caring human being that just wants to help others

Here's an excerpt from TLAC 3.0 describing technique 59, Positive Framing. IMO it's a core skill for teachers, for coaches and even (speaking from experience here) for parents. teachlikeachampion.org/blog/what-is-p…

Many situations in life are similar to going on a hike: the view changes once you start walking. You don't need all the answers right now. New paths will reveal themselves if you have the courage to get started.

Great fun speaking to my son’s middle school this morning about creating and nurturing confidence. It’s an elusive and fragile trait that takes understanding first. A 👍 from Finn himself made it a win for me. 😊

I’m often asked by parents (or coaches) about how to best help kids when struggling mentally in sport. This article is more about mental health than mental performance but the basic premise is the same. Here’s a short 🧵 kqed.org/mindshift/6118…

A wonderful story and lesson of coaching (author unknown). Provide them the right environment, watch, observe, smile, let them struggle, & let the beauty unfold naturally.

Fostering opportunities of deeper connection and laughter bleeds into performace as they play FOR each other instead of just WITH each other. My house is FULL of positive energy after a night of team connection ideas from Frank Carrozza. Thank you Frank! 🙏⚽️

Role reversal: Kids taking 📸 of parents/coaches. 💯☺️ Players + Coaches + Parents= Team Family. Bring entire families on the journey. Building relationships and fostering fun and connections is a critical but often ignored element of a healthy youth sport experience. #topgolf

A culture war opportunity masquerading as a sports issue. That’s the participation trophy debate. I’ve studied youth sports for 20 years, convened thousands of leaders on the real issues, and not one has identified $3 trophies for tee ballers as a problem. Great column here.

Performance and motivation enhancer: Discuss values and intrinsic fulfillment early and often in early teens (middle school), and keep having these conversations yearly. Increased likelihood of ✅self-awareness, ✅finding passion/interest, and ✅sustained motivation.

Incredible experience serving in Guatemala w/Warrior Way Soccer teaching faith thru sport. Taught a U20 top tier Guatemalan team & local communities how sport mindfulness & present moment awareness can improve play. Provided them w/cleats & they provided me with a full heart. 🙏

Public service announcement for managers and coaches: you can't judge effort by results. Inconsistent performance doesn't mean people aren't trying their best. It often means they're doing their best in the face of turbulence. In humans, variability is a feature, not a bug.

This was an *extraordinary* trip. It is very hard to put into words the impact you and your TOVO team have had on our lives after one week of intentionality, teaching, and kindness. We are forever grateful and forever changed. 🙏 Minnesota Rush Soccer Todd Beane Wayne Harrison Soccer Awareness
