Beyond Sportsmanship
Your opportunity to Bring Responsible Sports to Your Community

Beyond_Sportsmanship

The headlines this past month likely have you just as concerned as we are.

Serena Williams' tirade directed at a line judge. The University of Oregon football player, LeGarrette Blount, punching an opposing player following taunting after the Ducks' upset loss to Boise State. Justin Gage, the outstanding wide receiver from the Tennessee Titans, taunting fans after catching a touchdown.

Sadly, the experts at Positive Coaching Alliance note these incidents as evidence that the concept of sportsmanship is eroding. Or is it? While these examples of bad sportsmanship dominate the news headlines, there are also some terrific examples of good sportsmanship from this past year. And these moments equally deserve the spotlight.

Introducing Season Evaluations!

September_Season_Evaluation_Article_Image We're hard at work with the youth sports experts at Positive Coaching Alliance building a brand new tool to help leagues and teams solicit feedback from parents on their child's youth sports experience. The Responsible Sports Season Evaluations ToolTM allows organizations to build, customize and send surveys, providing an anonymous and confidential space for parents to share honest feedback. The tool handles data tabulation and analysis for each survey, featuring easy-to-read tables and charts with tools and resources to help translate results into action plans.

Think Responsible Sports Season Evaluations would be helpful for your organization?
