Some concerned parents and coaches say there is too much pressure in youth sports today. They are trying to strike a balance among competition, good sportsmanship, and fun. Laura talks with Fred Deppe, a soccer coach in Hudson, NH, and principal in the Massachusetts public school system, and Bob Bigelow, a youth sports reformer and activist and former NBA player. This is a rebroadcast of an earlier program.
