Show Notes

Tom Farrey is the Founder and Executive Director of the Aspen Institute’s Sports & Society Program, which provides thought leadership on topics including the landscape of youth sports, athlete advocacy, the future of college sports, and more. A former award-winning investigative journalist for ESPN and author of the book Game On: The All-American Race to Make Champions of Our Children, Tom has been at the forefront of youth sports reform for nearly two decades. He joins Nick to discuss why he's taken a top-down approach to changing the youth sports industry, the importance of educating parents on the unlikely payoff of a college athletic scholarship, and why parents should feel empowered to set community standards when enrolling their kids in sports.
