WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT BOB BIGELOW'S TALK
"Bob's message rings very true: let kids be kids. No one makes the
Olympics at age 9. I played every sport imaginable before college; none
of them well - thankfully my parents and coaches let me have fun. This
event is a must see for parents and coaches!"
Jeff McLaughlin - World Champion '87, Olympic Medalist Seoul '88,
Barcelona '92 (and lousy kid athlete) - Wexford, PA
"This is the best presentation I've seen anywhere on any subject. If
you're the parent of a child involved or soon to be involved in youth
sports, see it!"
Aaron Vittone, Pittsfield, MA

Bob is one of the foremost lecturers in the
country regarding the needs of children in youth sports, and using common
sense approaches to meet those needs. Bob is a former NBA 1st round draft
pick and 4 year NBA player. He played collegiately at University of
Pennsylvania for Hall of Fame coach Chuck Daly. He has spent thousands of
hours researching and lecturing about youth sports and their effects on
children and adults. Bob is the author of "Just Let the Kids Play".
Bob's mission to put the youth back in youth sports has received wide
media attention Sports Illustrated, CNN, The Boston Globe, New York
Times, Philadelphia Inquirer, New England Sports Network, Toronto Sun to
name a few.
During the past twenty years we have seen as explosion of organized youth
sports activities. Whether team sports-baseball, basketball, football,
hockey, lacrosse, soccer, softball or more individualized
endeavors-gymnastics, martial arts, skating, swimming, tennis and track
and field and wrestling there are numerous opportunities for our
children to participate.
Some benefits of these activities: working toward common goals, learning
new skills, using sports as a natural social outlet, having fun and
building confidence.
But there are also costs: increased pressures to perform and specialize
at ever-younger ages, a fanatical desire by adult coaches to win and a
senseless lack of sportsmanship by adults and children alike.
During the past decade, Bob has helped thousands of adults to keep their
youth sports involvement in perspective while enriching their children's
experiences. Bob is not just an advocate for youth sports, he is an
advocate for all the kids, including yours! |
