The Truth about the Youth Sports Industry with Dr. Linscott and Dr. Ruoff, Episode# 94
Description
In this riveting episode, Dr. Linscott and Dr. Ruoff explore how the current youth sports industry, pay-to-play sports, and the quest for prestige can cause unintended harm to young athletes and their families. Children and parents can both feel the pressure of belonging to a sports team where you feel the need to have a "return on investment," leading to resentment, suffering mental health, and injuries that can stop a career before it even starts. Jean Linscott, Ph.D., a clinical child psychologist, and husband Kenneth Ruoff, Ph.D are the co-authors of the newly released book "What is the Goal: The Truth About the Youth Sports Industry".
