STRATEGY​​​​​​​

CONTEXT
Today’s children are set to live shorter lives than their parents. ¹
This is literally the future of human movement but nobody is tackling it to a high enough standard.


PROBLEM
Coaches often coach the sport, while they should be coaching the child. ²
Most coaches are driven by their passion for sport - in particular those who coach kids. But the lack of supporting resources leaves them with a sense of insecurity and eagerness for mentorship. As a result they narrowly focus on hard skills like technique development, struggling to provide the environment kids need.

OBJECTIVE
Launch a program that brings back kid's confidence in sport
by helping coaches create a simulating space for kids. From a competitive, skill-developing mindset, To a stimulating and playful approach, where the goal is the journey itself.

INSIGHT
Playfulness is an attitude that makes learning new stuff fun. ³
