An overview of the Millennial Challenge presentation:

Today, more than ever, Coaches recognize one of the key reasons for the success (or failure) of their season is their ability (or inability) to engage their athletes. What has previously ‘worked’ with past teams, isn’t working anymore which can be frustrating for experienced Coaches. This younger generation of athletes are growing up in a time significantly different to earlier generations. These differences can either help or hinder you as a Coach.

This presentation outlines how this generation is different, why this represents a challenge and what we as Coaches can do to better connect and understand our players so they can be better team members and perform in our sport.
