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.
One of the most informative youth sports podcasts. The conversations are real and focused on developing young athletes into people first, with both short term and long term growth in mind. Parents and coaches should listen.

Listen to some pro athletes tell you how they know how to make your kid a youth sports star & how the only person holding your kid back from future stardom is you. This stuff was discredited decades ago.
A bit alarming how good the reviews are.
Signed, youth sports coach
Really great information. Sound mix for the podcasts is terrible. Very uneven and I find myself raising and lowering the volume throughout.
Thanks Greg for this info. Great insight and information on navigating the physical/mental aspects of raising kids in sports. It can be difficult for all involved within the family. Also, lifelong Panther fan raising my boys as Cat’s fans here in TN. Keep up the good work.
