  • Youth Inc gets it

    I know nothing about football. Nothing about Olsen. I know the crummy coaches I had and I know the coaches I would have run through a wall for.

    Youth Inc takes an honest look at youth sports and offers guidance for youth athletes, parents, coaches, and parent/coaches.

  • Youth Inc. LOVE

    Love Greg Olsen, I was a huge fan when he played on the Panthers! Lately I am the parent to an athlete, he’s 8 and some coaches treat them like they are 18. I really appreciate the insights Greg provides.

HOW JERMAINE ELUEMUNOR WENT FROM LONDON TO THE NEW YORK GIANTS

GREG OLSEN EXPOSES THE DANGERS OF SOCIAL MEDIA FOR KIDS
Q: So what do you say to the parent that says, but Michael, I live in a small town, I got a really talented 16-year-old kid, he's good enough to play in college, he goes to a small school, they don't get a lot of college recruiters. If I don't promote on social media, how is anybody going to find him?
Gervais says an adult can manage the athlete's account as a broadcast channel, so the young person does not have to post or check reactions.
GREG OLSEN EXPOSES THE DANGERS OF SOCIAL MEDIA FOR KIDS
Q: How should families handle that?

DABO SWINNEY ON NIL, THE TRANSFER PORTAL & WHAT'S WRONG WITH COLLEGE FOOTBALL
Q: If you have a son or a daughter who has college aspirations, what are simple pathways for handling seasonal sports and getting on campus and in front of coaches?
Swinney advises parents to support their children as parents, encourage multi-sport participation, and assess a school's people, culture and fit. He recommends speaking with current players in different situations and making a long-term choice rather than following immediate money or recruiting hype.
