We speak with the Founder of Changing The Game Project John O’Sullivan.  Their mission is to ensure that we return youth sports to our children, and put the ‘play’ back in ‘play ball.’  For every Tiger Woods and Andre Aggassi, there are thousands of others who are in it for the fun (until the adults take the fun out of it.)

Some other topics discussed:

Positive vs. negative reinforcement

Keeping youth sports in perspective

The dangers of living through our kids

When the worst time is to “teach” your young athletes

The best 6 words you can use in youth sports.
