Have you ever wondered... *why all those other sports parents seem so intense? *how you can help your kid succeed in sports without taking on a second mortgage? *why you get so emotional whenever you watch your kid play sports? If so, you need to read Sports Parenting: Creating an environment for success...without going Bat Sh*t Crazy. This insightful parenting guide by longtime coach Bill Schillings provides helpful principles parents can refer to as they deal with the individuality of their kids and their own emotions, in an often challenging sports environment. By illustrating the dichotomies that pull parents in opposite directions, Bill engages readers with anecdotes and observations they can apply to their own journey. He provides a much needed resource parents can use to help their kids succeed in sports and in life.
