College recruiting can be an exciting chapter for young athletes—and also confusing, emotional, and high-pressure. Most teens are figuring it out without a guide, especially one who understands both the sports world and the ins and outs of mental health.
This training is designed for parents of teen athletes going through this process with the aim of empowering and educating you so that you can be the steady support your teen needs.
In this honest webinar we will talk about what this process really feels like for a teen — and how you can help them stay grounded, confident, and true to themselves all the way through. We will touch on the realities of what coaches are considering in this process, the ways this process is not completely within any athlete’s or their parents’ control, the impact of being compared and rejected, and how to help your teen navigate the emotions of anxiety, shame, disappointment and insecurity this process can evoke.
And we will provide you with real skills and examples for supporting your teen through all of these potential ups and downs. The skills we discuss in this webinar are easily transferable and can be used time and time again to support your teen through other difficult or high-pressure situations in sports and beyond.
Not only will this help your teen navigate this process with more ease but it will help your teen build self-worth and resilience and help them stay connected to what really matter to them with whatever life may bring.
What’s Included:
1 Hour video training with licensed mental health therapists and longtime coach Doug Sweaney Herrick and Christy Sweaney Herrick
Downloadable PDF presentation slides
Note: This webinar will not talk about how to get recruited. There will be no mention of timelines of recruitment or strategies to help get on the radar of colleges.
