At What Cost‪?‬ The TakeFlight Podcast

    • Basket

As parents we strive to help our child reach his/her dreams of playing basketball at the next level.  In doing so, our kids are spending a ton of time competing year round, several dozen games in the course of a year. The question is, "At What Cost?".   Studies show our kids are breaking down and their bodies are physically paying for it - in most cases by the time they even step on a college campus. This episode I wanted to start the conversation and give my thoughts on AAU, Specialization, and ask the question of what would it take for change to occur. 

What do you think?  Be sure to send me your thoughts, concerns, comments.
