Youth sports as a development zone: Jim Thompson at TEDxFargo

The ripple effects of Frosty Westering and the Pacific Lutheran Football program are a great example of changing lives and this nation through character lessons presented through sport.

I liked this video. Very informative and still relevant.

I’m not even into sports but this is a good one!

We need this in all areas of kids' lives.

The positivity of youth sports in the US by far outweighs the negativity that you are portraying in this video.

down here in NZ 13 coaches walked out of badminton in NZ because of kids making false allegations of molestation so now no one will coach juniors noone will coach women ... because of this halls have closed clubs are shutting down... they are asked us to reconsider,, and our answer was no fuckin way.... its called "self preservation" so my advice is do not coach kids EVER! by the way these kids and parents were indians and english...... the worst weve ever seen.

Good saying

I feel like the people that need to watch this would rather watch Lebron James Complaining to a ref.

Very true.

Honestly, I never minded coaches who yelled and criticized brutally so long as it was just an effort to make us better.

Some good ideas, but got a little soft at the end. The baseball girl made a mistake under pressure and shouldn't be rewarded for that. Not cute but that's life
