Multiple Kids, Multiple Sports – Sports Leadership for Success

No Comments

If you are a parent with several kids involved in youth sports, then you already know how challenging it can be when it comes to positive role modeling and equally dividing your attention amongst the various games that your kids play (The Parents Playbook).  For kids, much of their sport adherence, growth, and development comes as a direct result of your active participation and encouragement, making it very important that you dedicate as much time as you can to attending your child’s games.  Obviously with multiple kids involved in girls and boys sports, this can be very challenging to do.

When kids see their parents in the stands or on the sidelines, they often beam with pride, often prompting them to try even harder to please you.  As a result, it behooves parents to make it a priority to attend as many games as possible, even when it’s not always the most convenient thing to do.  Remember, kids are quickly shaped by the efforts put forth by their parents — therefore, if you want your child to dedicate him- or herself to sports, then it is important that you develop skills that allow you to maxmize your attendance at as many of your kids games as possible.For a more complete overview on how to balance various kids athletic schedules, as well specific tips you can use to help, please check out this article I previously wrote for Columbus Parent magazine. www.drstankovich.com
