The Young Player Wellbeing Podcast

Welcome to the Young Player Wellbeing Podcast - developed by Care Visions alongside the University of Stirling. Your hosts, Brad and Toni, are dedicated to providing insightful discussions, expert advice and practical strategies that promote wellbeing as well as cutting edge tips for developing performance. We want to equip young athletes with the appropriate skills to have control over their own wellbeing, both in and out of sport. We do this by speaking to highly specialised guests about the importance of wellbeing and sport psychology through their own knowledge and experience.
