Sport and the Commodification of America's Youth | Travis Dorsch | TEDxPurdueU

"Participation is nice, but it's being the best that matters most", Travis says when it comes to sports. Travis' talk challenges the way society thinks about youth sport in America. Should parents be expecting some sort of return on investment when putting money into their youth's sports? Dr. Dorsch’s findings in the field of sports psychology have been highlighted in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and TIME magazine, and are used by youth sports leagues, administrators, and parents to construct more developmentally appropriate sports contexts and to evaluate the role of youth sport in the family. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
