Some moms are as passionate (or more) about youth sports as dads, and even those who aren’t are often deeply involved because they are passionate about their kids. On this episode, Megan Cannon, a former D1 soccer player, high school coach, mental health counselor, and most importantly, mom of two young athletes and wife to a passionate sports dad, joins us to talk all about moms' roles in youth sports. Going way beyond the role of TEAM MOM, moms often take the lead in maintaining family balance, recognizing emotional needs (not just the physical needs) of young athletes, offsetting some of dad's sports intensity, and yes, some also are great coaches to our kids. This episode will encourage and challenge moms, and there is a lot here for dads to understand and learn from as well.
