BONUS: Talking youth sports w/ NBA Hall of Famer Ray Allen + Wide World of Sports GM Leroy Arrington

We hadn’t planned on doing any bonus episodes this summer but when you get an email saying, “Would you like to interview NBA Hall of Famer Ray Allen?” you say yes and decide to put out a bonus episode. Ray is joined by ESPN Wide World of Sports General Manager Leroy Arrington. In the episode, we talk with Ray about why the process matters more than results, how kids need to learn from failure, and we also get an inside look from Leroy about what it takes to make a great experience at these giant tournaments and what he sees throughout the year from the families who walk away from youth sports stronger compared to those who walk away burned out or fractured. ABOUT THE WIDE WORLD OF SPORTS Along with professional level stadiums, it has four professional sized baseball fields, six fields used for softball and youth baseball, 10 tennis courts, a track and field complex, and an athletic center that can host six basketball courts, 12 volleyball courts, or two roller hockey rinks. And that’s not even all of it. In total, the complex features more than 30 outdoor fields and several indoor venues.
