Ep. 11 - The Coaching Couple

As a parent of a young athlete, it can be difficult to know what your role is in your child's youth sports experience.  For several hours each week, you willingly hand over the reins of your child's development to a coach, whom you likely have never met before, and knows nothing about your child.  How can you retain some control over the situation without crossing the line and undermining the coach's authority?  It's a fragile tightrope, but it's one that we're going to walk together.  I'm Coach Charlie Williamson, and I'd like you to join me for Talking With Coaches, where we will take a swing at this fascinating and complex subject with special guests, industry insiders, parents, players, and a full lineup of dynamic personalities. We'll raise some questions, find some answers, and have a whole lot of fun each week. So step into the batter's box, and let's start Talking With Coaches, follow us now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you enjoy your shows.
