Doug Donaldson was all set to rely on his playing experiences from an athletic childhood when he agreed to coach his son’s youth basketball team. But when the first day of practice arrived and the group of second-graders looked up to their new coach, he was just as confused as the kids. How was he possibly going to give them the best coaching and instruction?
PlaySportsTV, the website that Donaldson created in 2006 as a result of that experience and which is now the leading on-line youth sports coaching and instructional resource in the US, has launched a newly redesigned website, making it easier for youth coaches and parents to teach young athletes.
To coincide with the launch of its new website, PlaySportsTV is introducing a variety of web-based training plans for many of its sports. New training plans released by PlaySportsTV include Coaching Youth Baseball for T-ball through Little League, featuring Princeton Univ. baseball coach Scott Bradley; Slide Like a Pro for Little League baseball players; Coaching Girls Softball; Coaching Youth Soccer for kids aged five through eight; How to Play Striker for more advanced soccer players; and Coaching Youth Lacrosse.
