Episode 39: What Would Sport Look Like If We Started Again?


Listen Later

What if we wiped the slate clean and rebuilt youth sport from the ground up?

No politics. No old systems. No "that's how we've always done it."

In this episode of The FX Factor, Kelly explores what a modern sporting system could look like if it was designed around kids first. From movement and discovery to trials, pathways, money, accessibility and transparency, this is an honest conversation about the opportunities, challenges and big questions facing youth sport today.

We discuss:

  • why movement should come before sport
  • helping kids discover what they love
  • rethinking trials and selection processes
  • creating more pathways, not fewer
  • accessibility and the rising cost of sport
  • transparency around development programs and pathways
  • educating parents, not just athletes
  • why success should be measured by more than trophies and selections
  • bringing back play, freedom and enjoyment

A thought-provoking episode about what we'd keep, what we'd change and what we'd build if we had the chance to start again.
