Keeping Quiet Can Keep You Out of the Game

Posted by admin on May 31st, 2010 and filed under youth sports | 2 Comments »

As a high school basketball player, Tracy sustained two concussions within a short period of time. Tracy tells her story and emphasizes that concussions are a serious injury. Athletes should know that if they think they’ve had a concussion, don’t hide it, report it. Take time to recover. It’s better to miss one game than the whole season.

What do you see as the pupose of youth sports?

Posted by admin on May 25th, 2010 and filed under youth sports | 12 Comments »

Purpose. What kind of dumb program doesn’t let you fix typos.

For my kids to be part of a team and learn to work together, for them to stay active, to have another outlet for building social relationships and make new friends, to learn some skills and learn to improve on them, to have fun while doing all that.

For me it’s not about teaching them some life lesson of sometimes you get picked and sometimes you don’t. They have plenty of chances to learn that such as in gym class when they might be the last guy picked. It’s also not about learning sometimes you win and sometimes you don’t, they learn that by playing board games at age 3 and 4. Our motto is "if you had fun, you won" I think too many kids are stressed out these days about winning and they have lost sight of the real meaning of sports. I know kids on my son’s team who half the time aren’t paying attention because they are too busy looking over at the score board. When kids are young and they lose, the lesson shouldn’t be "well try harder and maybe you will win next time" the lesson should be "winning isn’t everything, you should do your best and have fun" if you did that, then you did win in another way.

What is a range of negotiable percentages for kickbacks for youth team sports photos?

Posted by admin on May 12th, 2010 and filed under youth sports | 1 Comment »

I will be taking the team and individual photos for a youth indoor football league this summer. There will be approximately 500 kids. This league is a club league and is not associated with the schools. I have worked with these guys in the past doing informal work and they have verbally committed to me that I am their photographer. I have a meeting with the administrators this week and will be negotiating a kickback percentage for the league. What is standard? Whats the max? I was going to offer 7.5%.

If 7.5 is good for you, that’s what it is. If they want more raise your rates.
