Honor the Game, For Parents

Responsible Sport Parents: A Guide For Parents

Responsible_coaching_large

Welcome to Liberty Mutual's Responsible Sports Parenting site powered by Positive Coaching Alliance. As the parent of a youth athlete (pre-school through high school), you want the best for your child, on and off the field.

This website helps you help your children:

  • improve on-field performance
  • learn life lessons that sports uniquely can provide.

This site aims to provide you the resources, tools, and expert advice to help you and your family. But by all means, we don't think we have all of the answers. That's why this site also includes areas for you and fellow parents to exchange ideas and ask questions of other parents dealing with similar issues. Together as a community and with your help, we believe we can ensure a safe, positive, character-building youth sports experience for our kids.

Liberty Mutual and Positive Coaching Alliance see a world of good possible from youth and high school sports. For families to benefit fully, they should consider, discuss and process the experience together...and with the coaches in their lives.  Get Started »
