About this event
At TeamSnap, one of our missions is to enhance kids' lives by enabling participation in sports. We strive to provide parents, coaches, players, and organizations with the technology to provide better experiences, while serving as a resource and thought leader within the world of youth sports.
Sports have the power to boost mental health in young people – and coaches and parents alike play a role. However, a study from Psychiatric Times suggests that nearly 68% of youth athletes still struggle with mental health.
In December, we’ll be hosting a webinar with Sean Jensen from the Winning Isn’t Everything Podcast to discuss tangible solutions to help youth athletes navigate the world of mental health in youth sports. He’ll bring together an accomplished panel of sports and mental health experts, including Dr. Wendy Borlabi, a high-performance coach for the Chicago Bulls and founder of Borlabi Consulting, a performance psychology firm, along with Kelsey King, a Mental Performance Coach who recently retired after capping her brilliant hockey career with an NCAA championship at Ohio State.
With this webinar, we aim to further facilitate the discussion around mental health pressures faced by young athletes and their families.
TeamSnap is proud to continue the mission of providing our coaches and parents with greater knowledge of common topics surrounding mental health, allowing them to support their athletes in not just their physical skills but also their mental preparedness.
