In this episode ofBound for Greatness, host Scott Garvis sits down with Austin Fischer, Director of Baseball & Softball at RCX Sports, to discuss the growing trend of sport specialization and why playing multiple sports is often the better path for young athletes. Fischer shares insights from his own journey as a multi-sport athlete, the science behind athletic development, and why top college coaches prefer recruiting multi-sport athletes. He also breaks down how early specialization increases injury risks, leads to burnout, and is often driven by misinformation and financial interests. Tune in for an in-depth conversation on how multi-sport participation builds stronger, more resilient athletes and how RCX Sports is creating accessible opportunities for all kids to play.
