For our fifth youth sports virtual summit we will continue to offer FREE recorded interviews with amazing guest speakers that will drop in your inbox each day.
Based on feedback we received from our past events, we will now also be offering a LIVE PASS. Recognizing the challenges that many have faced during COVID-19 from a organizational and personal standpoint, we have implemented a pay what you can model, where a portion of the proceeds will be going directly to getting kids back to play. This will get you closer to the speakers and replicate the feel of a live conference experience... albeit completely virtual!
Included in your live pass will be:
Live presentations from global experts followed by Q&A
Live expert panels followed by Q&A
Breakout rooms to review your key takeaways
Networking with fellow attendees from around the world

He is a graduate and now a mentor of the University of British Columbia’s School of Kinesiology. Soon after he graduated from UBC he started coaching, and he has now coached men, women, boys and girls in slo-pitch, hockey, baseball, softball, rugby and ball hockey for over 2 decades. Glen is also the founder and CEO of Paradigm Sports and Executive Director of For the Love of the Game, two organizations with the key goal of educating coaches, parents, and sport organizations of current trends, research, and best practices to make sure youth sport is a wholly positive experience for kids. His infamous quote “Kids play sports because they’re fun, they quit when they’re not. It’s not rocket science” shows his ability to simplify the issue and speak to and engage people in a way that makes them want to understand and be better for the kids they serve.
