If you ever wonder how lessons learned in sports translate to life, look no further than to former NAVY SEAL Commander Rorke Denver. Rorke couldn't have led missions all over the world and become the leader of every phase of training for the SEALS, including the infamous BUDS, without the grit, team-first orientation, and leadership skills he began developing in youth sports. Denver shares his youth sports story, which led him to become an All-American lacrosse player at Syracuse University, helping his team win two national championships and propelling him to a life of serving his country and teammates. After his decorated military career, Rorke played the lead character in the 2012 film Act of Valor, became a NYT best-selling author, and a sought after keynote speaker. Our time with Rorke includes his compelling stories from his SEAL experiences, as well as his insights for young athletes, parents, and coaches, and his thoughts from his current experience as a sports parent.
