Youth sports is about fun, creating an active life-style, and teaching lessons through games.
It is important to teach competition and to teach early on that there is a winner and a loser, but its important to do that within context. Teach winning and losing in terms of strengths and weaknesses, in terms of work ethic and commitment, and in terms of how to humbly deal with success and how to appropriately bounce back from defeat.
As long as a kid keeps playing, as long as a kid keeps improving, and most importantly, as long as a kid keeps having fun, then good things will happen.
