Listen "Build a Unique & Successful Youth Program"
Episode Synopsis
On this episode I am joined by Julia McRae. Julia is a former collegiate and professional soccer player who is now a teacher, athletic director, coach and oversees the girls' program at Let Kids Fly (LKF), a local and highly unique youth soccer program.
I really enjoyed learning about Julia’s development as a player and coach, and how her experiences helped shape the unique and successful angle that LKF takes with their players!
Julia and I cover:
Her background as an athlete in high school through playing professionally in Canada
Her transition into coaching and things she has learned as she evolved as a coach
How Julia got involved with Let Kids Fly (LKF)
The pillars that LKF are build upon, their focus on character and community
The coach/player relationship can be a positive one from a communication and relationship perspective
How LKF supports multi-sport athletes, as well as manages how often they are training/competing to allow for balance for the athlete
The role of the parent in an athlete's sport experience
The overall importance of remembering who you are as a person in training and competition is the most important aspect of who you are as a player!
And more!
Julia brings a wealth of knowledge and experience that has influenced so many aspects of the structure of LKF and how she helps your girls grow in sport! I really enjoyed hearing her perspective and I think you will, too!
