This week Topher talks with Jason Guerriero, USA Hockey Player Development Manager. We brought Guerriero back on for round two to talk about creating a challenging environment that also facilitates a love for the game.

In this episode we talk about:

— Setting clear boundaries as a parent coach

— How being challenged is what makes the game fun for kids

— That failure is inevitable, but it’s about how you get through it

— How we’re creating more stress than we need to for players

AND SO MUCH MORE!
