The stories are true: Reasons for a youth athletic development program... The stories of the soccer players who can bend it like Beckham but fail to balance on one leg are true. The stories of 11 year olds dropping curve balls but can't hang from a bar for more... show more

Hell, I'm 58 and wondering where I can find a program like this that will get me back into exercising slowly. I'm going to need skills like coordination, balance, stability as much or more now that I'm older.
Very true!
I remember my youth development program in the 50s. Climbing trees Jumping on stones to cross the creek. Swimming in the Erie Canal. Ignoring No Trespassing signs to play in construction zones Walking to all Little League practices Shoveling snow to play driveway basketball
Powerful message
All accounts true. Adults admire kids' energy but often stifle play, limiting exploration, risking kids quitting sports. Some kids in the video explore differently. Still in single file? We are unaware of how structured we truly are. Rethink movement w. decision.
Excellent!
true stories is right!
Super!
Haha having something like this when I was a kid would have been life changing. I was totally that college athlete that couldn’t skip in place when I first got there
Make Kids Coordinated Again!
