Episode 61

Today is a conversation on what actually predicts long-term success in youth basketball. We cover the risks of early sport specialization, the relative age effect and why "late bloomers" often overtake early developers, and why overcoming setbacks and staying engaged with the game matters more than current skill level. Direct value for parents and coaches deciding how hard to push a young player.
