Concerns of Adolescent Teen Girls

The Girls on The Field sport psychology workshop was created to address the concerns of adolescent teenage girls. While having conversations with teens playing middle school and high school competitive athletics the following struggles came up:


·         Time conflicts (sports vs. academics)
·         Your needs vs. the team’s needs  (position, playing time and number of teams competing for)
·         Competition with teammates (positions, playing time and varsity spots)
·         Difficult social situations (unsportsmanlike competitors and/or teammates)
·         Dealing with your mistakes
·         Cliques


Teen girls requested ethical and moral guidance via an active workshop. Thus Girls on the Field was born.
