The Instruction Manual, is written by Author-Head Coach, Steven L Davis, a former Multi-Sport Athlete, a Competitive Club and Select Travel Team Tournament Coach, a Sports Parent of three, and now a full-time fan and mentor to five Grandchildren actively involved in Competitive Club, Select Travel, and High School Sports programs. The Instruction Manual is a dedicated Sports Playbook the Author spent a lifetime developing, that provides historical and modern era practical advice, proven strategies, and insider tips, to help families make the most of their Youth Sports Journey.

Learn how to choose the right entry level recreational sports programs, support your child's athletic development, how to manage challenges, frustrations and emotions, and stressful competitive club team tryouts, along with high school and collegiate recruiting programs. Who knows maybe your player could go Pro one day! We have that covered as well. Been there almost did that with Major League Baseball.

The Instruction Manual also includes a Free Digital Budget Planner that will help your family to project and manage your cash output every season, for every player.
