Team USA Offers Resources for Parents of Youth Athletes
Parents do not receive a playbook when their child signs up to play a sport.
There is no manual.
There is no tip sheet.
An initiative by the United States Olympic Committee has pulled together expert advice and input from its many national governing bodies (NGBs) to produce the Team USA Parent Youth Sports Resources.
It started April 5 and continuing each month through the end of 2019, the program will roll out a total of 32 resources to help parents negotiate their way through the youth sports machine. It is an ambitious program that involves input from 12 NGBs, including USA Swimming, USA Hockey, USA Volleyball and others.
