The Epidemic of Non-Contact Injuries
Are these injuries just "bad luck"?
Are they just "a part of the game"?
Sports cost more than money—they cost your child’s body. The best time to invest in performance, injury prevention and longevity is during childhood.
Youth Sports Are Intense & Repetitive
70% of kids quit sports by the age of 13. Why is that?
- Injuries
- Overtraining
- Burnout Source
Intense youth sports + Poor physical development =
More young athletes in pain

Early Sport Specialization
Many parents decide to specialize their child at an early age because talent in youth sports has never been higher.
Countless research and observations illustrate the long-term consequences of early sport specialization despite it's ability to solve short-term performance issues.
1) Non-contact injury
2) Developmental deficiencies
3) Mental health issues
Practice Is Monotonous
Practices are not stimulating the physical and mental adaptations needed to mitigate injury and increase performance
1) Same "warm ups" everyday
2) Same robotic drills on a weekly basis
3) Same stretches and "recovery" everyday
4) Little novelty or creativity
Pillars of
Performance (3
C's)
Coordination
In any sport, the athlete with superior balance and body awareness will have a clear edge. Sports demand instantaneous joint arrangement to execute powerful, efficient movements. Elite coordination is the backbone of athletic ability.
Capacity
How much physical activity or training can their body take before the risk of injury becomes too high? Increasing their capacity means they can safely handle a higher volume of practice and play. More opportunities to practice and play means more time to hone the skills needed to succeed in their sports.
Creativity
Skill is the power of discernment. The core of all competitive sports involves the ability to make split-second decisions that give them the best chance of winning. Creatively problem-solving for an incoming defender or anticipating an errant pass is what separates the good from great.
