Aspen is a place for leaders to lift their sights above the possessions which possess them. To confront their own nature as human beings, to regain control over their own humanity by becoming more self-aware, more self-correcting, and hence more self-fulfilling.

Knowledge about the best practices in raising young athletes is constantly evolving. At this SXSW panel, Sports & Society Executive Director Tom Farrey joins Matt Bowers, Clinical Assistant Professor of Sport Management, University of Texas at Austin; Christine Bolger, Associate Director of Coaching Education, United States Olympic Committee; and Emmanuel Acho, NFL Linebacker/Media Personality to share the latest advancements in the science and policies in youth sports. The goal: to help parents (and those interested in youth sports) navigate the maze of new information on raising good athletes…and good kids.
