About this listen

Are sports parents getting in the way of your team’s success?

If you’re struggling with today’s sports parents, you are not alone. Headlines like following are common:

How Parents are Ruining Sports

Sports Parents, We Have a Problem

The Nightmare Sports Parent

Parents become obstacles not because they want to be a problem but because there is a lack of collaboration to support the athlete and the team.

As a coach, you can be part of the solution. In The Sports Parent Solution, J.P. Nerbun, one of the world’s leading experts on team culture in sports, offers a comprehensive blueprint for turning your most challenging sports parents into your greatest allies.

Leveraging ideas from leaders in education, the military, and sports, and sharing dozens of real stories from youth, high school, and collegiate-level coaches, Nerbun shares practical strategies for creating open lines of communication, building a connection to the team, and engaging in hard conversations. Throughout, listeners will find inspiration in real stories from coaches at the youth, high school, and collegiate level whom Nerbun has supported in his work as a leadership coach and culture consultant.

Explore how to:

√ Overcome the common obstacles and fear of sports parents

√ Foster a collaborative partnership

√ Get parent support for your goal and vision for the team

√ Enforce boundaries for the wellbeing of you and the team

The Sports Parents Solution gives you the strategies and methods you need to transform the parent culture in your team, allowing you to better support each athlete’s growth, improve your team’s performance, create an extraordinary experience for all involved—and take your program to a whole new level.

A transformative outlook

JP continues to be a coach and author that sets a standard of love and care. Reminding all coaches , players, and parents to treat others like people not obstacles. A fascinating read with sports moments that bring tears to my eyes. An important read for any asipiring coach.
