Samenvatting:

Most parents think that their children are the most talented, most intelligent, and most likeable human beings on the planet. Even though this conclusion represents, for the most part, a biased perspective, when it comes to sport participation, many caregivers don't stop to evaluate the reality of their presuppositions and the total cost it takes to raise a star elite athlete.Three university professors, however, desire to paint a realistic picture by providing an honest look at the components necessary for one to become a star athlete.Counting the Cost: Raising & Coaching Elite Athletes is a template that will help caregivers see a holistic view of the necessary ingredients involved for a player to become known as an "elite athlete." Becoming a star athlete, then, is a symphony production composed of parents, coaches, and athletes all coming together to produce a harmonious product that is enjoyed and admired by all.
