MOST INSANE 15 SECONDS OF THE YEAR x.com/F0RGIAT0/statu…

Youth tournaments are often a weekend of wasted development. We spend three days chasing a plastic trophy instead of maximizing the court time for genuine player and coach growth. Here is how to rethink the long weekend tournament. 🧵👇

There is an inverse relationship in youth sports between focusing on winning and developing players. You cannot do both optimally at the same time. The more you prioritize winning, the less resources you have to dedicate towards development. The adult desire to win puts a focus on structure & schemes, wasting valuable (and already limited) practice time that could be better spent in dynamic skill building environments. It breeds early positional specialization which limits well rounded development opportunities for all kids. It forces young kids into a performance mindset that inhibits creativity & risk taking. Long term growth is sacrificed for short term results. Remember, selection bias is what creates the illusion that players on youth ‘elite’ teams are developing at faster rate than they otherwise could be in an environment that prioritizes development.

Elite cognition starts with elite preparation.

@chatham58 @LexChatham @NEPSAC was a new frontier for me, too. I've been coaching at @BrooksSchool for the last 4 years and am blown away by the experience provided. Elite academics, athletics & support. Best of luck on your journey!

All this was completely foreign to my Midwest brain mere months ago, but in New England we live near some of the best prep schools in America—if not the world! You’re just 17, have already proven SO much. But now have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Love this for you, son 👊
