Episode 79: Setter vision, Concussions, and Whole Child Sports

Our skill segment focuses on ideas surrounding setter vision. How important is setter vision? When should we start training vision for young players? How can you get athletes to use their vision to impact the game? We discuss all of this and more on the podcast!

Our scenario segment deals with concussions, how avoiding concussions are of critical importance in the health of young people, what coaches and players do to help avoid them, and how they are disrupting the sport more now than ever.

For our resource segment we share information about Whole Child Sports, whose mission  is to raise awareness about the many problems in youth sports today and provide advice and solutions for sports parents and youth coaches.
