Despite
heightened awareness of youth sports violence, the number
of abusive, negative and violent incidents has risen sharply
in the last five years among all age groups and all sports.
As a youth sports leader or parent of a young athlete, you
may have come face-to-face with unruly parents, players and
coaches whose win-at-all-costs mentality spoils kids’ fun.
Maybe you’ve witnessed talented young athletes abandoning
once-loved sports as the pressure to perform becomes too
intense, too emotionally charged, or sometimes, too dangerous.
To reverse the disturbing trend, the Saint Barnabas Health
Care System has developed a program for recreational and
youth leagues called Rediscovering Youth Sportsmanship.
