Parents Perspective ............ High School Athletic Transfers w/ Larry Rubama

     While transfers are nothing new, many coaches and school administrators say they are alarmed at how often athletes are changing schools - and how many are doing so.  In all fairness, is it the athletes that are making these changes or their parents?  I have not seen a case yet where an athlete told his parents, mom and dad, I am changing my address, because I want to go to school “X”, because they have a better football program than school “Y”.  Parents what have we fallen into?  What failures are we setting our children up for?  Why do we believe that a transfer will aid in securing a college athletic scholarship?      Many questions to be addressed and answered, but it all starts with us as parents.  Where do we start parents?  We will start here tonight on the Parents Coaching Parents Network.  We are here to provide as much support and guidance as we can, from our perspective.  We value our resources as they are connected across the US.  So join in on the conversation and share your views on this very important topic that has such a huge impact on our children as athletes.
