Motivating Young Athletes: The #1 Mistake Coaches Make

Struggling to keep your young athletes engaged and driven? Motivating young athletes is more than just pushing them harder—it’s about helping them stay focused, confident, and inspired to grow.

In this video, Coach Lauren Williams breaks down the two biggest motivation killers she sees in young athletes every day:

🛑 Over-Fixation on External Goals – Focusing only on wins, rankings, and championships makes athletes feel like their progress is out of their control. When results don’t go their way, motivation drops fast.

🔄 Lack of Feedback Loops – Athletes set goals, but how often do they check in on their progress? Without clear feedback from coaches, mentors, or even themselves, they feel lost and unsure if their hard work is paying off.
