In this episode of Coach & Counselor, we’re joined by Jeff Quillin to talk about the long game of youth sports — especially baseball — and the lessons that last far beyond the scoreboard. Jeff shares his perspective on athlete development, pressure in youth sports, and the role parents and coaches play in shaping confidence, resilience, and enjoyment of the game. We discuss how recruiting fits into the youth sports journey without letting it define it, why “fit” matters more than hype, and how families can stay grounded when plans change due to injuries or shifting paths. This episode is for parents, coaches, and athletes looking for clarity, balance, and perspective in today’s youth sports environment — where development and well-being matter just as much as performance. #baseballszn #texas #texasbaseball #youthempowerment #mentalhealth #coaching #nextgen
