#050 Off the Pitch with Active: Sound of Music of youth sport, experts view on the best environment for youth to thrive in sport..

Mark O’Sullivan is helping me kicking of the 50th celebratory episode of “Off the Pitch with Active”.

To me he is an inspiration fueling my burning desire to help influence people to create a youth sport environment which Mark said in the opening “Meets the physical and emotional needs of children and youth”.

So, I put together this episode with a mixture of previous guests, who shared their view of the best possible environment for youth to thrive in sport. My question to them was “What is your Sound of Music of youth sport?”

You will love what they have to say.

Thanks for staying with me and supporting my journey to discover ideas on how to reduce the dropout rate in youth sport.
