from Sportish · host Georgie and Libby Trickett
The pressure from different sports, all the school sessions, and possibly a teen that wants to play it all. How do you know what's enough and what's too much? Nathan Parnham works specifically in teen athlete development, and knows the simple things you can look at as a family to work out where the line needs to be. And you can bet that we'll be asking our kids to jump on one leg and do some forward rolls after this chat!
