ACL injuries change lives and threaten careers. You can help us change that. Take the #ACLpledge today. As.pn/ACLpledge #ACLcoalitiom @AspenInstSports

Early in my PT career, I accidentally trained the athleticism and flow OUT of baseball players… Until I realized: the same neural pathways that take you from lying on your back → walking are the key to unlocking natural athleticism and flow. Masterclass by @bryceharper3

In all my research I did for my feature on the CLA coaching movement, this is the first time I’ve seen a team publicly announce the CLA as their guiding principle in this fashion. It may be because the CLA was relatively unknown to the outside world before our story and teams using it often tried to keep it a secret, but this is a pretty big step forward for the CLA movement. Here’s the story, which includes a section on Alex Sarama’s work that helped transform the Cavs last season. Before he left for the W, he was promoted to assistant coach and was given a bigger role in shaping the Cavs offensive system this year. nytimes.com/athletic/6665943…

This is elite coaching “We are trying to play fast when it’s 5 on 5, we can’t do that. We have to manipulate the spacing first” Really good stuff This is how to communicate in the huddle with your team (Via @NBCSCeltics 🎥)

"lack of rest, in addition to increased travel times & distances, the under-resourcing of teams with qualified & experienced staff, and the increasing physical demands, has been connected with the epidemic of major injuries, including ACL tears" abc.net.au/news/2024-06-07/f…

“Non-athletes have no concept of what it is to be a high performance athlete...It is not play. It feels like life and death. It is a razor-thin margin between being on the team and not being on the team" theguardian.com/sport/2022/s…

"When I hear about guys sleeping in their office I wonder what they hell they're doing there. Cause the game ain't that hard. The work will always be there, your kids won't. I tell my coaches, if you miss a recital or little league game... I'll fire you." - Bruce Arians

"With the incentives for virality and clickbait, debates today cannot function as they once did. The form has been all but destroyed by the ability to cut and snip only the moments of a debate you want others to see" timjwise.medium.com/charlie-…

“We never really focus on the result, we focus on the process and I know that sounds cliché, but that is genuinely how we run our programme, and we got here through hard work” @JosiahMaama pmn.co.nz/read/sports/dilwor…

"...being a second-generation N.B.A. player is becoming almost unremarkable. In 2009, ten players in the league had fathers who’d played for N.B.A. teams; this past season, there were thirty-five." newyorker.com/magazine/2025/…

85% of female college athletes know they are at higher risk of ACL injury and 89% would perform a daily prevention program if it could prevent injuries. Only 15% had ever done one. That's a problem. #ACLpledge nata.kglmeridian.com/view/jo…

I walk around the local schools after dinner. There's two youth football teams practicing a couple nights a week. I've seen kids less than 8 years old running for punishment more than once. Why??? If anyone needs coaching it's them! I saw a grown man groan and yell because a child false started in a practice rep and you would've thought the world was ending. Don't use physical exercise as punishment. Teach your athletes. Coach them. Don't just yell and make them hurt because you can't control YOUR emotions.

I coached for 43 seasons. The biggest mistakes I made were not schematic. They were post game right after the heat of the battle comments. Some good and some bad. Both can come back and bite you. Don’t overly praise or criticize. Give everyone some time to breathe and evaluate the film. Good luck this season! ✝️💪🏈

This is such great coaching wisdom from @NotreDame Head Coach Brock Sheahan. Practices should look messy. Players need to be able to work through failure and mistakes. “If you can’t get beat in September…when can you get beat?”

42% of teens say they feel sad or lonely. Nearly 1 in 3 struggles with anxiety. Coaches can change that. With 6.5 million youth coaches nationwide, we have an untapped resource to tackle the youth mental health crisis. Congratulations to MCC partner, the @ussoccerfndn, for launching Yes, Coach! to train 100,000 coaches as mentors over the next five years. 📖 Read more in @USATODAY: usatoday.com/story/opinion/2…
