I had the opportunity to speak at the Middle States USPTA Conference in Philadelphia last weekend, presenting to a room full of coaches. What a treat! 
This week's podcast is a slightly edited recording of my presentation. You will hear questions from the audience (please forgive the sound quality as I was recording the whole thing on my iPhone) and my attempts at helping these coaches understand what parents want from them. We discuss communication, tournaments, rankings, college recruiting, and burnout among other things. I hope this presentation opens the door to many more opportunities to address coaches directly and help to bridge the gap between them and us.
You will hear me reference a Facebook Live video that I did regarding USPTA certification. You can find that video at https://www.facebook.com/ParentingAces/videos/1676603665745115/.
You will also hear me mention Allistair McCaw's new book, Champion Minded. You can find his book here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/069279154X/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=069279154X&linkCode=as2&tag=pareaces-20&linkId=d437a485e4f34c3ac4ce061b067fd289
