Episode 7: What to do when... you're not competitive but everyone else is 

A bit of shoosh, please. Abusive behaviour from parents towards kids and umpires is ruining sport for kids.  Georgie, Libby and Bec talk through how to ask your parents to dial down their enthusiasm (or anger) and we ask parents to reflect on how they’re showing up for their kids on the sidelines and why winning is so important.
