Welcome to the 42nd edition of The Parents Week, your digital source for the latest and most impactful stories in football family dynamics and career management.
This week, we dive into:
- Apophyseal injuries – a fright of young athletes and parents
Apophyseal injuries are common among young athletes, especially those involved in sports that require repetitive movements, such as football. But what exactly are apophyseal injuries, and why do they occur? - Balancing Top-Down and Bottom-Up Perception as a Parent
A singular focus on top-down perception isn’t always the best lens for every situation. - How to Manage Conflicts Between Teammates
Instead of avoiding conflicts or responding with frustration, young athletes can learn to use dialogue, empathy, and teamwork to strengthen their relationships and improve team cohesion.
