🎙️ Coach’s Corner: The State of Youth Sports

Featuring: Coach Jacob Crane (Meadowbrook Basketball) & Coach Brooks, CEO of Motivate the Game

In this episode, Coach Crane sits down with Coach Brooks to dive deep into the current state of youth sports — the wins, the challenges, and the culture shaping today’s young athletes.

They discuss the mental health pressures that come with the constant demand to “be great,” how social media and comparison impact confidence, and what coaches, parents, and communities can do to support the next generation.

It’s a real, unfiltered conversation about balance, purpose, and perspective — reminding us that sports are more than a game; they’re a tool to build resilience, character, and life skills.

💭 “We can’t just motivate the game — we have to motivate the mind.”
