My name is Megan James and I am a 2010 graduate of Louisiana Tech with a BS in Clinical Kinesiology and Health Promotion and an MAT with a Mathematics and Biology Concentration in 2015. If you told me in 2006 as a freshman at Louisiana Tech that I would be working in a high school teaching math and coaching softball, I would have told you that you need to get your head evaluated.

The Aspen Institute's Sports & Society program, in partnership with Utah State University and Louisiana Tech University, have developed a survey to assess the important roles parents play on children’s developmental outcomes in sport. The study is utilizing a national sample of youth sport parents and will ask them to answer specific questions about their children’s sport participation, the ways they are involved in that participation, and aspects of sport, school, and community settings that shape their children’s involvement experiences. The survey takes 15-20 minutes to complete. The Aspen Institute will publish results in 2025 and explore the findings at the Project Play Summit in March where leaders will consider solutions to gaps and challenges identified through this research. Please take the survey here and share with others: https://lnkd.in/e5Dq2KVM
