Under Pressure: How to Help Your Child Thrive in a High-Pressure Youth Sport World

With over 20 years' experience working with developing athletes, coaches, and families, Craig is one of New Zealand's leading voices on helping young people thrive in sport. His work blends cutting-edge research in long-term athlete development and child psychology with real-world stories from schools, clubs, and academies around the country.

Too many of our kids are dropping out, burning out, or getting hurt — and parents are desperate for guidance that actually helps. This is a rare chance for them to hear simple, practical ways to build confidence, protect wellbeing, and create positive sporting environments that last.
