Matthew Young is an industry leader with over 25 years of experience in the allied health care sector. A graduate of the University of British Columbia, Matt put his Human Kinetics degree and passion for health and sport to use in his first start up company – Innovative Fitness. This body of work led to a Canadian (2006) and British Columbia (2011) Top 40 Under 40 recognition. In early 2010, Matt turned his focus to the not-for-profit sector where he founded a charity focused on supporting the development of physical literacy in youth. To date, these tools have been utilized in over 238 countries.
Matt’s affinity for all things active has led him from the gridiron where he was a conference All Star to the Sahara Desert, to cycling across three countries. He is a Guinness Book of World Record holder, two-time Ironman, ten-time marathon finisher and multi day adventure race competitor. Matt and his team have raised over $6.25M for charity over 20 years with a lifetime goal of $10M.
Presently, Matt consults sport organizations ranging from community to Provincial, National and Olympic sport federations, including the NHL and PGA on how to operationalize their development pathways and maximize the sport value proposition.
In today’s conversation with us, Matt shares with us the current state of youth sports, what makes kids want to play youth sports and how to develop quality sport experiences that benefit all stakeholders, including kids, parents, coaches and officials.
