"We play games !"
.
" We train" !
.
"Games are important ! Kids should PLAY"
.
" Drills matter; scoring matters; kids should WORK !"
.
The junior golf industry is a dizzying array of competing commentaries ..
.
I am submitting GAMES as a cornerstone concept that promises to enlighten ALL coaching practices.
.
The STUDY and APPLICATION of games is a multi-disciplinary pursuit that offers a rich lens into how humans interact with information systems, novel stimuli, patterns- probabilities - resources, and the complexity of others.
.
"GAMES " are also constraints - a framework for almost all coaching interventions.
.
" GAMES" are also mathematical; formal systems that can be understood , and harnessed for a multitude of applications.
.
and GAMES are of course playful and FUN , and offer clear direction for those looking to position engagement, entertainment, emotionally resonant EXPERIENCES at the heart of their business.
.
Spend 2 days scouring the infinite depth and width of GAMES with myself and the very best in junior golf coaching Feb 7/ 8

Want MORE kids in your summer junior golf program in 2021 ?
.
It will depend on your Parent/ Junior DECISION score..
.
+10 and it’s going to be a record 📈 summer .
.
Under -10 and it’s more of the same.
.
2021 is the year the #coaching industry gets #serious about junior golf #experiences . There is a whole lot bigger ceiling on everyone’s FUN factor than their is immediate “improvement “ , a premise that , biologically , doesn’t exist .

Games, FUN , PLAY .. concepts and formal systems that can be studied , understood , and even mastered.
.
If you are a golf coach working with young people or tasked with making something “FUN” the DiscoverGolf Junior Golf Summit on Feb 7/8 is going to guide you through the science and architecture of games and play so you can better enlist the attention and emotional investment of your students to create robust learning environments.
.
Make this the year you add a brand new kind of learning module to your education portfolio.
.
And for those that don’t think PLAY is “ elite “ or is a “soft science” I invite you to a 2 day deep that is guaranteed to change your mind.

Episode 2: Steve Starobinsky
LINK IN BIO
I am really excited about sharing this conversation. If you are an educator / coach of young people and looking to make your programming more ACCESSIBLE to children; spend the next 45 minutes hearing from a man that has his finger on the pulse of what is COOL and TRENDING in the world of toys and games.
Steve Starobinsky is a man deeply entrenched in the world of PLAY. He is responsible for helping ideas become consumer brands while using data-driven insights to consult with established and soon to be known toy and game companies.
In this very special episode, we bridge the gap between the broader, hobby market of toys and games to the world of youth coaching.
Steve shares many key insights, including :
* Key data points from trend lines in the toy and game industry
* The importance of "recency" and " authenticity" in products /services geared towards today youth
* The rise and future of ESports
If you are a coach of young people, parent , and/ or game enthusiast this is a MUST listen!
To connect with Steve Starobinsky @thekidatheartshow
Does the golf industry want the junior golfer that is not interested in conventional golf training / outcomes?
.
If you’re a coach of advocate of golf would love to hear your thoughts 💭!
