In this episode of The Sideline Standard, we’re joined by Jason Aaron — Youth Program Director at the Center and Pastor at Outpost Community Church. Jason shares how his work in Monroe’s youth programs is focused on more than just wins and losses — it’s about building athletes with character, leadership, and life skills that go far beyond the game.

We explore the power of sports to shape young people, the responsibility of coaches and parents, and why investing in youth sports culture matters more than ever.

If you care about raising strong athletes and even stronger humans, this one’s for you.
