Impact Beyond the Sideline

How parents are rethinking support, pressure and their role in youth sport.

1. Aiden McLaughlin

“Craig ran a fantastic session full of opportunities to share, learn and grow as parents. It provided insights around behaviours I had rarely reflected on. I would thoroughly recommend attending — in fact, as a parent, I think it’s essential.”

“Craig creates such a safe and supportive space to reflect on your own experiences around sport. We came away with valuable family conversations and now feel far better equipped to support our children in their sporting journeys.”

3. Jess Scott

“Craig really got us thinking about the role we play in our kids’ sporting journeys. Such a great reminder about how we can support them to grow, have fun and thrive both on and off the water.”

4. Samantha Newton

“One key takeaway for me was matching my child’s enthusiasm rather than exceeding it — allowing their motivation and enjoyment to lead the way. A simple but incredibly powerful idea.”

5. Chris Goudie

“Craig’s session completely clarified my role as a parent in sport and changed how I see those sideline moments. It should honestly be part of every club’s parent induction.”
