It's a very special episode of Breaking the Line, as the podcast celebrates its 125th episode!
After an invigorating discussion about navigating birth years and skill levels within youth soccer, ECNL President Christian Lavers and ECNL Vice President Doug Bracken continue the conversation with a parent email regarding how to properly handle when an athlete has the skill to compete at a higher level, but not necessarily the physical attributes to do so.
This question, paired with some realizations from Ep. 124, leads to the meat of this week's episode: the parent-player-coach dynamic.
The Breaking the Line team dives into the relationship from all three parties, and discusses the roles and responsibilities of each side of the dynamic, and how to ensure everyone is copacetic and have positive relationships and interactions throughout an athlete's journey.
