PYD PROGRAMMATIC
DESIGN
Receive guidance on developing team climates that are based on the principles
of Positive Youth Development -- building mastery learning environments, providing effective feedback, developing player autonomy, and linking skills developed
in the sporting environment to athletes'
every day lives.
PYD ENVIRONMENTAL
ASSESSMENT
We can provide programmatic assessment
of your environment -- do your policies and practices match the principles of positive
youth development? Are coaches implementing brain-based and developmentally appropriate methods of instruction? In what ways can you shape your organization to deliver curriculum and experiences that best support player
and team development? Are your coaches developing skills in young people that will transfer to their lives outside of sport?
