Been a hot second since posting on here but I’m looking for my next adventure and would love to get back to the LTAD/S&C world. Let me know if you know of anything or if you’re willing to share this with your network, that would be awesome #opentowork #edtech #youthsport

#LTAD Thread: This weekend my daughter became independent skiing. This process has been a fun case study for creating joy around an activity and how to curate an intro to a sport experience. Our 3 rules: - we are kind to each other - we try our best - we have fun 1/2

Anyone can request a break or dictate a break if these aren’t being met. We talk about examples of meeting/not meeting each. There are only positive vibes. At the end of the day we debrief w/ stuff like this. This is what LTAD is all about! 2/2 #youthsport #physicalsctivity #PE

Replying to @AlaskaAir
@AlaskaAir forces me to gate check my ski boot bag, then damages my ski helmet to the point it isn’t safe, tells me it takes 4-6 weeks to be reviewed but may be denied b/c I reported it 48 hours after landing instead of 24 b/c I just opened the bag & they will only reimburse 1/2

me a max $100 (if approved through this review process) because I don’t have the receipt of the helmet I bought 5 years ago. Such frustrating/bad policy 2/2 @AlaskaAir #customerservice101 #youbrokeityoubuyit

Notice no sports skills here. Not because the didn’t work on them today. Just that for this age group (5-9), these coordinators abilities and perceptual motor skills are equally, if not more, important @241Sports #physicalliteracy #physicaleducation #LTAD

If every sport organization did things like @GoldfishSwim we’d see the #LTAD dream realized: -age appropriate -progressed systematically -differentiated -room for play and exploration -joy #youthsport #physicalliteracy @USASwimming
