MTP#35: Paradigm Sports, Bring The Game back To The Kids

This week my guest will be Glen Mulcahy of Paradigm Sports with a mission to help parents, youth sports coaches and executive members understand the issues in youth sports - and do what we can do to fix them, so we can bring the game back to the kids … where it belongs. To do that, Glen and his group educate coaches, parents and administrators through workshops, presentations and online resources to help keep kids involved in sport well into their adulthood by Developing Leadershttps://www.spreaker.com/show/mtp-dave-briglioAbout Glen: Glen has a knack for seamlessly backing up key concepts with relevant anecdotes and research. You will find Glen’s ideas on ‘kids in sports’ are not only thought provoking, but enjoyable as he communicates with a great sense of passion and humor. His lifetime of multi-sport experience and uncanny ability to connect with his audience & draw them into his story makes Glen a passionate down-to-earth man that is driven to prevent youth from dropping out of organized sports. Glen’s belief in focusing on the fundamentals of the game rather than current game-centric and winning at all costs is both refreshing and inspiring. Now with two youth athletes of his own, Glen is determined to bring the game back to the kids and inspire youth to stay involved in sports not just during teen years, but throughout adulthood as well.In this episode you’ll hear:•The pros and cons of excellence v. specialization•The different communication methods for boys, girls…and millennials•How not to be a kids’ last coach
