Description


Let's help youth athletes learn how to play for something More Than the Score. Their future depends on it.

More than ever, youth sports has become a hyper-competitive battleground. Coaches berate the players and parents threaten the coaches. Pat Combs has seen first-hand the destruction this has caused. It's negatively impacting our homes and communities.
This book gives you practical tools so you can breakdown the "win at all costs" paradigm and replace it with a growth mindset. Since almost all youth athletes will not become professional players, let's allow sports to give them something they can use their whole life: character and virtue. Traits that matter More Than the Score.
