We, as the adults supporting these fantastic young soccer players, play such an important role in making sure the team is driven by positivity. Regardless of score, if the players aren’t having fun then we have all lost. But the right tone of unconditional positivity can prevent that. So let's all do our part to keep the FUN alive in youth sports!

On Every Team...

“As parents, as coaches, as leaders, we can no longer lead from a place where winning is our only metric of success, where our ego sits center stage, because it has been proven that that process produces broken human beings. And I emphatically know that it is absolutely possible to produce and train champions in life in every single walk of life without compromising the human spirit .”

"The start of the year offers a chance to reset how we support young athletes. The language adults use in sports environments has a lasting impact. Saying these phrases more consistently reinforces confidence, support, and enjoyment beyond wins and losses.

We encourage parents and caregivers to use these phrases more in 2026. It will mean more to athletes than you realize.

Screenshot this, save it, and keep it accessible throughout the year."
