New episode of The Playbook for Youth Sports! 🎙️

What if we could hear what athletes are really experiencing before burnout or disengagement drives them out of the game?

In this episode, Jennifer Peacock sits down with Pamela Minix, founder of the Sports Wellness Platform, to talk about how youth sports organizations can move beyond performance alone and better understand athletes’ mental, emotional, physical, and social well-being. From spotting early warning signs to supporting healthier coaching environments and stronger parent–athlete relationships, this conversation gets to the heart of why kids stay in sports or walk away.

If keeping athletes healthy, engaged, and loving the game long-term is important to you, this one’s worth a listen.

Tryouts are one of the most stressful moments in youth sports, for clubs, coaches, parents, and especially athletes.

Behind every thriving youth sports organization is a coaching staff that gets it — the mission, the families, the kids.
