Development is like farming, 

and you can't speed farm. 

The one-sport, year round 6-12U athlete 

fast-tracking past development, 

often succumbs to injuries, burnout or worse.  

And at an age when their minds' 

and life are critically developing. 

Professional & high-level athletes 

have shared how they excelled in

multiple sports.

And that un-structured play

 plus time away from the rink  

ignited newfound passion.

Development Knowledge (DK)

is purposely during the day 

so as to not interfere with 

other sports / summer activities.

Kids need time to be kids.

It shapes them as adults. 

A very small window of time 

vs decades of life.
