Want to help your kids get the most from their sports experience?

The Judge Memorial Catholic High School Athletic Department and Judge
Parent Association are excited to bring you this one-time workshop. Learn
how you as parents, along with your children’s coaches, can work to
establish and maintain a positive competitive environment. This fun and
informative free workshop will cover the following core concepts and more.

PRINCIPLE #1 - REDEFINING “WINNER”
Is the first question you ask your young athlete after a game, “Did you
win?” What message does that send to them?  Help your child redefine what
it means to be a “Winner.” In this section we’ll talk about better
questions to ask.

PRINCIPLE #2 – “FILLING THE EMOTIONAL TANK”
Like coaches, parents need to meet the 5:1 ratio of positive to negative
interactions so that your child will have fun and perform better. We
discuss specific steps parents you can take to achieve this 5:1 ratio to
improve your child’s emotional mindset.

PRINCIPLE #3 – “HONORING THE GAME”
Learn how to seize teachable moments with your kids. Discuss instances of
honoring and dishonoring the game that they see live, or on TV. Learn how
to find the right opportunity for discussion, the strategy of asking
open-ended questions, and listening to your child.
