Game on
Book description
A first-of-its-kind investigative book on the least examined and most important topic in sports today.
Youth sports isn't just orange slices and all-star trophies anymore. It's 14-year-olds who enter high school with a decade of football experience, 9-year-olds competing for national baseball championships, 5-year-old golfers who shoot par, and toddlers…
Why read it?
1 author picked Game on as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
We were amazed about how Farrey took us on a global journey analyzing how youth sports are handled worldwide, with the United States's pay-to-play club travel team system receiving low marks indeed. It is a great and accessible read by an individual who now heads up the Aspen Institute's Project Play, which is devoted to reforming youth sports in America.
From Jean's list on understanding the youth sports industry.
