Many observers have pointed out what is wrong with youth sport: an
emphasis on winning at all costs; parental over-involvement; high
participation costs that exclude many families; lack of vigorous
physical activity; lack of player engagement; and no focus on
development. Currently, most attempts at righting the wrongs of
youth sport have focused on coach education and curriculum, but in
this book, the authors offer a different approach-one that involves
changing the game itself. Re-Designing Youth Sport combines vivid
examples and case studies of innovative sport programs who are
re-designing their sport with a comprehensive toolkit for
practitioners on how to change their game for bigger and better
outcomes. It offers a fresh and exciting perspective on the
seemingly intractable issues in sport. It presents a practical and
empowering pathway for readers to apply the examples and tools to
the outcomes that they aspire to achieve in their sport, such as
increased fun and excitement, life-skills building, gender
inclusion, increased sportspersonship, greater parity and avoidance
of one-sided competition, and positive parental roles. The book
also reveals how community leagues as well as national and
international sport governing bodies are using re-design to
accelerate player skill development, tactical awareness, and
physical fitness.
