Steve and Roger take on a very controversial and often emotional issue that pervades not just lacrosse but other youth sports and trickles into all aspects of life - that a disproportionate number of Generation X parents relative to past generations put their own feelings and the feelings of their children above accountability and the drive for self-accomplishment through talent, imagination, and work ethic.  This has resulted in an era of participation trophies and coaches being demonized, even on competitive travel teams, when players may not get the playing time Mom or Dad think they deserve (or are entitled to). This episode speaks to the very heart of the future of not only sport, but the future of our nation as the children we raise will one day be responsible for running our country and raising the next generation of human beings.  It was inspired by a real incident that Roger experienced this week as a coach that affected him deeply and Steve provides an excellent perspective on not only Coach Roger's experience, but how it is a symptom of a much greater issue that many would argue is a serious societal problem.   For more content from Steve and Roger, visit their respective blogs at TrainerToTheStars.com and The Creator's Game.
Host Roger Welton (Co-host Steve Jordan was unavailable for this one) discusses the 2017 Tewaarton Award winners for the most outstanding players in Division I Men's and Women's Lacrosse.  This year, the award, so named in honor of the Native American origins of the sport (Tewaarton is the word for lacrosse in the Mohawk language, long accepted to be the progenitor of the sport of lacrosse), went to two national champions from the University of Maryland Terps, Attacker Matt Rambo and Midfielder Zoe Stukenberg.   Roger highlights the significance of this honor, as well as the historical offensive tilt to the Tewaarton award.   For more content from Roger and Steve, respectively, visit their respective blogs at The Creators Game and Trainer To The Stars.
Roger and Steve lament on another great Division I college lacrosse post season that saw Maryland win its first national championship in 42 years, while Ohio State makes history by making its first ever Final Four appearance and played for the national champioship.  Ohio State also heralded the growth of the sport of lacrosse with a diverse roster that included several players native to Ohio and other less traditional lacrosse regions in the US.  Roger and Steve break down the game, the participants, and what they mean for the future of lacrosse.
Roger and Steve talk childhood player development from the perspective of the US Lacrosse research and sports science based Lacrosse Athletic Development Model (LADM).  From modified small ball in the youth recreational leagues to age appropriate physical and developmental expectations, the new model for lacrosse athletic development set progressions and reasonable expectations with the goal of keeping as many kids as possible participating in youth sports after the age of 13 (an age where at present, 70% of kids stop playing organized sports).
