The Club Sports Crossroad: What’s Really at Stake?


Listen Later

When is “helping your kid succeed” actually costing your family more than you realize? In this candid conversation, Luke and Jean sit down with producer Aaron Rose to unpack the emotionally loaded world of youth sports — especially the tension parents feel when deciding whether to jump into select ball. What starts as a simple baseball question opens up a deeper dialogue about family values, hidden costs, and the fear of your child falling behind. From long commutes and big price tags to the subtle pressure of status and expectations, they explore how easily good intentions can drift into overwhelm, burnout, and a lost love for the game. Aaron shares his real-time wrestle as a dad of an eight-year-old, while Luke and Jean draw from experience and faith to help parents consider not just the upside of club sports but the sacrifices beneath the surface. Whether your child is picking daisies in the outfield or begging to join a competitive team, this episode invites you to slow down, look at the whole picture, and refocus on what really shapes a kid’s heart.
