The Youth Sport Scene in 2015
Expectations for our young athletes have never been higher. Today, the goal is to identify talent early and develop it. Parents and kids alike feel the pressure to navigate this hyper-competitive, pressure-filled, make-it-or-break-it world of youth sport. Significant amounts of money are being spent by parents on professional coaching, strength and conditioning, technical training, and even sport psychology. As parents, we often ask ourselves, “Am I doing enough?” “Am I doing too much? “Am I doing the right things?”
So what is the big picture? With expectations, pressure to perform, scholarships on the line, all combined with our strong emotional attachments to our kids, it can be easy lose sight of the big picture. Are your kids developing the confidence to perform their best? Can they reflect on their own performance to learn and grow? Are they independent enough to manage their academic, athletic and personal responsibilities? Do they have strong core values to help them navigate decisions? Are they able to build strong relationships with others?
Role of the Elite Sport Parent
As sports parents, we are financial providers, emotional supporters, chauffeurs, snack makers and mentors to our young athletes. More importantly, our role is to ensure we create the ‘culture’ that our young athletes live in daily.
How we think, respond and communicate with our children teaches them how to do the same in their own world. Our expectations and family culture set the framework for success in academics, sports and life in general. How well are we able to truly create a thriving environment in today’s challenging landscape for parents? The KPA Elite Parent Program can ensure you achieve this.
We understand parenting is your lifetime career. Your job description as a parent changes constantly. Shouldn’t you have the skills, tools, and knowledge to keep pace with your child’s evolving needs?
By maximizing your child’s performance demands a unique set of skills and a mindset of lifelong learning, courage, commitment, and focus. Are you willing to develop this skillset and mindset to meet your child’s challenges? Doing so defines what it means to be an elite parent.

Parent Testimonial
“This program is the most worthwhile time I have spent in my 17 years as a parent of kids in youth and college athletics. The credentials and skills of the instructors are unmatched. I have walked away from many programs in the past wondering why I paid and spent my time listening to the same common sense advice I already know. Not this time. This is scientifically based information that’s useful, accessible, and unique. The value extends far beyond our kid’s lives as athletes. It challenged me as a parent. I only wish I would have had the chance to work with KPA earlier in my son’s sports career.”
Denise Oldham – UC Berkeley Educator and Student-Athlete
“I wish that I had this information years ago. It was very enlightening to learn new ways to help student-athletes. The manner is which the information was presented was excellent.”
Mr. and Mrs. Jedson – Ice Hockey Parents
“The program was excellent. It has helped both my husband and I to think differently about how we can help our daughter be the best she can be. I was really impressed with the science and research behind it as well as the really practical tools we can use. The follow up coaching has also been invaluable in helping take our daughters performance to another level.”
