Who we work with:
Educators

I grew up in sport. I can’t count the number of hours I spent in the backyard, at the Basketball stadium, down at the local footy ground. When I finished playing, I coached Basketball for 10 years at a variety of levels. 

These aren’t things that go down on my resume, and yet they still may be some of the most influential experiences to what Youth Led does today.

All this time spent wasn’t just playing and coaching, it was so much more. It was also time spent observing and thinking.

About what you ask.

About how to navigate, manage, and thrive in a junior sporting experience. 

Could I formulate that sentence when I was younger? No. But now that I am older, and I start to process what I observed and thought I can. 

You see junior sport has so little to do with performance and outcomes and yet so much revolves around it.

The junior sporting experience is such a terrific opportunity to learn how to manage not just yourself so that you maximize your experience, but also how to navigate the intriguing dynamics that go on within the context you find yourself in and the others that are within it.

As I mentioned above when I was younger there’s no way I could think like this, and that’s where the coaches come in.

The opportunity to have access to a guider (coach) who can create awareness around what really matters during the junior sporting experience is invaluable – however it isn’t always easy for coaches to know the right approach.

We hope that at Youth Led we can be of assistance in this space. We believe we have the ability to provide coaches with the necessary tools and strategies to provide their youth athletes with the guiders that they need.
