Questions for young athletes

Back-to-school questions for young athletes in Colleyville, from the coaches at Colleyville ATA.

Graphic from Colleyville ATA about training routines for young athletes.

Thinking of our young athletes this morning. It is easy to get overwhelmed in the back-to-school season. So many opportunities, especially here in Colleyville, and so little time. As you decide how to spend your 24 hours with your young athletes, consider asking some of these questions. Our favorite: do my everyday behaviors reflect my sporting goals?

It is easy to think that practice happens only on the mats or on the field. Are you making nutrition choices, sleep choices, and recovery choices that support the goal?

Youth athletes sometimes struggle to see the big picture. That is why they have you, Mom and Dad, to help them see it. The coaches are here to support you and your athlete. Whether it is at-home stretches to prevent injury, ideas for more protein, or practice techniques, just ask. We are happy to share.
