This podcast is about bringing parents, players, and coaches together around the most important aspects of the youth sports experience. You have thousands of teachable moments in the context of a 15-year window where kids are most open to learning and development - physically, mentally, tactically, emotionally, psychosocially, and in terms of core character. 

The goal of this podcast is to boost our enjoyment of the game and of the gift we have in our children. We hope to help parents, players, and coaches to make the most of the time we have with our kids, and to launch them into the world of adulthood with a solid toolbox of life skills.

#15 - How Much Does it Cost to Play Soccer - Part 1

Feb 12, 2018

Soccer families that understand the economics of the game early will make better investment decisions over time. It’s possible to just “follow the crowd” and see where it takes you, but you’ll spend more time and money this way than you need to. By understanding what’s involved in costing a soccer experience, you’ll go in with your eyes wide open.

This episode is part 1 of a two-part series that talks about the soccer experience. We will introduce the variables here so that next week when we talk about the range of soccer experiences available, you’ll better understand why one experience costs more or less than the other. In the episode immediately following these two on cost, we’ll talk in more detail about how we can choose the soccer experience that’s best for our own family.
