In this episode… Parents love to watch their children play sports and coaches love to interject as the kids are on the field. But retired NFL player Tony Tolbert believes that coaching shouldn’t be done on the sidelines, they should happen before and after the game. The kids need guidance before they get out on the field, they need focus during the game, and they need to know where and how they can improve post-game. Football is a very competitive sport and Tony uses these same teachings he has learned throughout his career with his own kids who now play their own sport. And for Tony, allowing kids to learn how they can navigate their own field while offering support is the best way for them to hone their skills.
