Welcome back to Episode 1643 of the Runpreneur Diary! In today's episode, I dive into the contentious topic of gamesmanship in children's sport. As someone who assists in managing an under 14s boys football team, I've witnessed first-hand how certain behaviours can become problematic. Specifically, I discuss an incident involving a young player notorious for using sledging—a term from cricket where players try to get into the opposition's minds to gain an advantage. This episode explores the impact of such behaviour, why it doesn't belong in children's sport, and the importance of teaching young athletes the right way to play. Join me as I share my thoughts and experiences on this crucial subject.
