Late last summer, I checked off a long-standing bucket list item by spending a day at the Little League World Series in Williamsport, Pennsylvania. Experiencing it for myself was awesome, and it was made even better by taking my three oldest grandsons along with me. While the baseball was good, there was much more than the games to experience. As would be expected in today's marketing saturated world, a variety of companies from sporting goods stores to those who make sunscreen had experiential booths set up. My grandsons, being young baseball players themselves, were especially drawn to the Easton bat display, where all the attention was placed on the Easton Hype Fire bat, which retails for anywhere from three hundred to four hundred dollars, which is actually cheaper than their five hundred dollar Dub bat. This got me thinking: why do we spend so much on youth sports? Is this really good stewardship? And what are we teaching our kids about spending to God's glory?

What if the real game isn't played on the field, but at home, in the way we raise, support, and speak to our kids? In this heartfelt episode, Craig Holman, former pro player and father of two elite athletes, joins Matt Antonelli to share the untold truth about youth and travel baseball. From watching his son Luke battle childhood cancer to seeing him become one of the nation's top prospects, Craig reveals how failure, faith, and love shaped both his family and his coaching philosophy. This isn't just about baseball -it's about building resilient, grounded humans in a culture obsessed with wins and exposure. Whether you're a parent, coach, or young athlete, this episode will change how you see youth sports and what truly defines success. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: Why “more exposure” isn't the same as development The single most powerful thing parents can say to their kids How to build confidence without pressure or comparison Why failure and struggle are essential for long-term success The life-changing difference between listening to your kids vs. for your kids How perspective-not performance-shapes greatness Craig shares unforgettable stories of parenting through adversity- including his son Luke's fight with cancer, his daughter's final at-bat, and how the “tennis ball moment” changed his understanding of effort forever. His insights remind us that the greatest wins happen off the field and that the true job of a parent-coach is to nurture purpose, not pressure.

Rick talks to Naomi J. Brown, MD, pediatric sports medicine specialist about injuries in youth sports. While playing sports can be important for both physical and mental health, injuries are bound to happen, landing millions of young athletes in the ER each year.

Today I got to talk to Brian Smith and Ed Uszynski about their new book, Away Game—A Christian Parent's Guide to Navigating Youth Sports. This is a new topic for the podcast but as soon as I saw the title pop up in my email, I was intrigued.  Youth sports are such a huge part of the lives of many families, and I love that Brian and Ed are asking the question, “where does the Gospel fit into youth sports?” Brian and Ed were collegiate athletes and now work with an organization called Athletes in Action that brings Christ into the lives of coaches and athletes of all levels. But it was when their own kids began playing youth sports that they decided to begin looking at things like: how kids and families can grow in relationship with Christ through sports, not allowing sports to become an idol, showing grace through failure, reflecting the love of Christ to every other athlete on the field, and so much more.   In their book, they talk about “spiritual formation rather than sports formation”.  And I just love their desire to make sports culture something that reflects Jesus' heart instead of making it self-focused, like so much of sports can be. We discussed the youth sports industry that really isn't about what's best for our kids, but rather about playing into our own insecurities as a parent, and the pressure we parents are putting on our kids as a result. That led us to talk about the importance of making sports about joy and fun and less about winning. 70% of kids are quitting youth sports by age 13 because the joy of play is gone for them. As Christians our joy isn't in winning or being the best, but in showing and knowing the love of Christ no matter the outcome of the game. I found this book and my conversation with Brian and Ed so encouraging and helpful. I know you are going to enjoy it too.  Where to find Ed and Brian: Find their new book here Find Brian and Ed on Instagram here Find more of Brian and Ed's writing here The Greta Eskridge Podcast is a part of the Christian Parenting Podcast Network.

"... like a street monitor?"

Parents are very emotional about their kids' youth sports experience, and they're pouring a lot of money into youth sports. Because of these factors, they may feel that coaches favor other players when their kids aren't getting the playing time they want, said Jen Fry, a TEDx speaker, owner of JenFryTalks and sports geographer, which means means she studies how geographical factors, like terrain, influence which sports are played in specific areas. When are coaches playing favorites? How should coaches address kids' weaknesses? Does it make sense to favor young athletes who are coachable? Should parents talk to coaches about favoritism?  Send podcast episode ideas to The Ultimate Sports Parent Subscribe to this podcast on Apple Podcasts  Visit our blog

Max shares his experience founding City League, a local nonprofit bringing back competitive, affordable, community-driven sports for kids.

What if the chaos on the sidelines could be replaced with calm, connection, and character-building moments? In this profoundly insightful episode, we sit down with Jonathan Carone, the creator of Healthy Sports Parents, a fast-growing podcast and social media movement that's transforming how we view youth sports. With over 70,000 followers and 2 million monthly views, Jonathan's message is clear: youth sports are not about raising great athletes — they're about raising great humans. From sideline meltdowns to teachable moments, he shares how sports can become a virtual classroom for life, teaching resilience, teamwork, responsibility, and emotional intelligence. Whether you're a parent, coach, or simply someone who's seen a youth game go off the rails, this episode will leave you inspired to shift your mindset and parent with intention — from the bleachers and beyond. You'll also hear about his upcoming book, The Sideline Survival Guide, and how a side project grew into a national movement with endorsements from Olympians and Division 1 coaches. Key Takeaways: Youth sports should be a classroom, not a competition. Emotional chaos on the sidelines affects kids deeply — awareness is key. Parenting from the sidelines means cheering, not coaching. Empathy and self-awareness lead to better sideline behavior. Responsibility and resilience are the real trophies of youth sports. The 10 Commandments of Healthy Sports Parenting are changing lives.

Being a parent in youth sports is… a lot. One day you're cheering on your kid for picking clovers in the outfield, the next you're asking yourself: “Is my kid… special?” and googling special clinics in the area. We've been through the highs and lows, and that's why we were so excited to sit down with former NFL All-Pro and award-winning broadcaster Greg Olsen in today's show. Greg is on a mission to make youth sports healthier and more balanced through his platform Youth Inc. He knows both sides of the game: he was part of that 0.02% who actually made it to the pros, and now he's a dad coaching kids in today's pressure-packed youth leagues.We talk about what's broken (spoiler: it's mostly us parents), how to keep sports fun for kids, and what Greg would do if he were the “czar” of youth sports. He also shares how he personally dealt with career setbacks (yes, even after Super Bowls and broadcast booths), and why the real goal in sports isn't the scholarship or the contract—it's the process of showing up and growing. Stay tuned for Penn's Top 5 Changes to Youth Sports at the end. Maybe you'll start keeping Penn points for your kids games!

Plus, the latest on RFK Jr.'s feud with the American Academy of Pediatrics over Covid vaccination guidelines for kids.
