Culture, Character, and Coverage: A Coach’s Guide to Building Safer, Stronger Teams

Why proactive insurance planning and team culture matter more than ever

Announcing Monthly CYA Calls to stay protected and informed – sign up at LAP.red and subscribe to the Substack.com/@rauterkus.

In Episode 28 of Heavy or Not: The OG Swim Guide, we tackle two core issues shaping the future of coaching:

Where to find a great resource on how to build a winning swim team culture rooted in character and shared responsibility.
Where to jump start conversations that at every coach and organization should know about insurance, liability, and proactive planning.

⚽️ Soccer 5 and NRPA Announce Partnership

Soccer 5 and the National Recreation and Parks Association announced a partnership focusing on small-sided soccer facility development nationwide.

The goal is to establish a public-private framework that creates more spaces for kids to learn about soccer while bringing revenues to parks - with no capital expenditure for the parks - by using underutilized spaces for the downsized competitions, often 3-v-3 or 5-v-5. Soccer 5 has already invested $15 million in parks nationwide and plans to invest another $50 million by 2030.

The NRPA has 3 GOALS for 2029 to increase youth sports development:

Goal 1: "Develop, disseminate and advance NRPA's Youth Sports Framework to achieve a 10 percent increase in key youth sports strategies" — the program includes things like equity and inclusion in underserved communities, and training coaches. How you measure a 10% advancement of that… is unclear.

Golazo 2: "Funding and training more than 150 agencies and 45,000 coaches to improve outcomes in under-resourced communities".

Gooooooooooooooal 3: Increase participation in youth sports in parks and recreation by 10% nationally.

Sorry, got carried away with the soccer references there.

My take:

Makes sense. Think of it as maximizing the revenue per square foot of the United States.

©Trend(s) Watch™®:

There are several of them:

1) Lots of handwringing about access to organized sports in underserved communities— tangible steps being taken here to address.

2) I think we're about to see a surge in coach training at all levels of youth sports, as evidenced by the NBA's hard lean into Euro-style development and the 45,000 coaches the NRPA aims to train. As you expand the long-tail of sports participation, coaching quality becomes a real concern without said training.

3) The upcoming World Cup and the Olympics will drive additional youth sports participation— need more ways to play, at all levels of the socioeconomic ladder.
