David Rutherford and Jason Collinsworth discuss the issues within the youth sports system and the impact on child development.
Jason Collinsworth — host of the I Hate Soccer podcast and 11-year youth soccer trainer — joins David to break down what's actually happening inside the multi-billion-dollar youth sports machine. You'll learn why 17 coaches in eight years can produce zero real development, why the leagues your kid is fighting to join are run as gatekeeping cartels, and why most coaches at the youth level can't even articulate a coaching philosophy when asked. David explains why what Jason is describing isn't a soccer problem — it's the same failure pattern you see when any system replaces meticulous individual development with marketing, recruiting, and pay-to-play optics. We break down two-footed training as a confidence-building doctrine, why parents become the threat instead of the support, and what to look for in a coach who's actually going to develop your kid versus one who's going to use them. Jason Collinsworth has spent over a decade running his own training company and is one of the most-watched independent voices in U.S. youth soccer. ✅ Sponsor: ☕️ Black Rifle Coffee, use code froglogic20 for discount: https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/ 🏫 Get coaching by David…
