Your Soccer Source for 360 degrees of parent education
Over the past two decades the importance of youth sports has grown dramatically. Organized sports have taken the place of unstructured play for many children. Opportunities for unstructured play have become more limited for many reasons. These reasons include:
- Safety concerns
- Dual income households
- Decrease in useable open space
- Lack of clusters of children the same age in neighborhoods
For this reason, many youth sports organizations have grown and attempted to reach more children. For children to be able to get the maximum benefit from their participation in youth soccer, the parent must educate themselves on their child’s experience. Soccer Source 360 has partnered with Sports Path, a company devoted to educating parents on their child’s soccer experience. We encourage all parents to take the free parents education course by clicking on the image above. If you find this online course valuable please take additional online courses for the unbelievable low price of $10.
