Today, I recommend listening to this video of Bruce Bochy, San Francisco Giants Manager, posted on The Positive Coaching Alliance web site. Coach Bochy elaborates on how young athletes can develop resilience and why it is important.
Resilience is key for successful young athletes. I've seen many parents protect their kids from failures and to a degree from defeat in sports. You know the type--the mom who doesn't allow her son to try out for a high-level team and risk getting cut. Instead, she guides her son to a local, lower-level team.
Please watch the video (link above) and ponder this. Tomorrow, I will write another post on the topic because I have a lot more to say...
