Alan Stein Jr. (@AlanSteinJr) is a world-renowned coach, speaker author and a father of three aspiring young athletes. He spent 15+ years working the highest performing basketball players on the planet, from Kevin Durant to Kobe Bryant, and now teaches audiences how to utilize the same strategies in business that elite athletes use to perform at a world-class level. His first book Raise Your Game was a bestseller, and his new book (with co-author Rich Czeslawski) The Sideline: A Survival Guide for Youth Sports Parents has just been released. it is a short, power packed book designed to be handed to all the parents on your team so that they can best support their children, coaches and officials during their child’s journey.
In or conversation today, we discuss what motivated him and Rich to write this book, why its not helpful for parents to coach from the sidelines, what to say to our kids post game or on the ride home, parent engagement strategies he has learned from coaching mentors, and the lessons he has learned parenting his own children.

This week’s podcast is also brought to you by our friends at Sports Refund. Many of you probably buy trip insurance, every winter I buy ski pass insurance, to make sure that if I get injured I can get my money back on that expensive investment. Well, many of us spend thousands of dollars on our kids sports club fees, but what if they get hurt? In many cases you cannot get your money back, but now with Sports Refund you can. And it’s not just for long term broken bones or torn ligaments. It is only a 14 day waiting period, so you even get a refund if you roll that ankle or pull a hammy! For just pennies on the dollar, you can make sure that if your child gets sick or injured and misses a month or more you can get your money back, or your club can get paid. It’s a great product, just go to www.sportsrefund.com/game and get your free quote, and if it sounds good you can either get your club to sign up, or you can purchase on your own.
