You can only give what you have! Recovery is part of performance. ⚽️🔋
Load management helps athletes balance sports, school, recovery, and simply being teenagers. Parents can help by:
👂Listening when your player says they are tired, sore, stressed, or overwhelmed.
❓️Asking, “What do you need today?” before offering a solution.
💜 Encouraging honest communication with coaches.
💯 Remembering that their best may be 100% one day and 60% the next.
😴 Treating sleep, nutrition, and recovery as part of training.
Rest is not a lack of commitment—it helps athletes stay healthy, enjoy the game, and prepare for their next opportunity.
