#51 Steven Yurchick: How do we teach resilience using youth sports?

In episode 51 of the 4D Athletes podcast, Jason and Jim are joined by author and coach Steve Yurchick

Steve’s playing experience at the college and professional level led him into a career in athletics. His roles as a student-athlete, coach, and administrator have helped him gain experience in data evaluation, recruiting, strength and conditioning, fundraising, academic support, and program development. The variety of disciplines he applied to his professional career were directly learned through the foundations of sport.

Specialties: Teaching and instruction, program coordination, technical and creative writing, sponsorship development, scheduling, media relations, communication, and management.

Steve’s book “Swing Away, Stan” is a spirited tale of heart and resilience that reminds us to never give up. Opening Day of Stan Clark's little league season takes an unexpected turn that challenges him as a young ballplayer. An unavoidable adversary on the rival team leaves Stan searching for confidence as his championship aspirations hang in the balance. Joined by his best friend and teammate (Rudy), the scrappy Cobras team embark on a roller coaster season filled with electric moments. Determination, barbeque, and a once-in-a-lifetime encounter rejuvenates Stan's season with a unique twist of fate. But, will it be enough for the final showdown?
