📗 The Player Development Guide Is Here — And It’s Finally In Print
A practical, printed resource for professionals shaping athlete experiences beyond the field.
There’s a gap in the world of athlete support.
Too many professionals are asked to develop athletes off the field — but don’t have the tools, training, or templates to do it with clarity and confidence.
That’s why The Player Development Guide was created.
And today, I’m proud to share that it’s officially published — and available in print for the very first time.
What’s inside?
This book is not theory. It’s a practical, proven roadmap to build, lead, and grow in the field of player development.
Whether you're new to the field or already in the seat, here’s what you’ll find inside:
Clear definitions of player development and its core pillars
Templates and frameworks for designing holistic programs
Real-world examples from collegiate and professional settings
Reflection questions to challenge your approach and grow your impact
Tools to help athletes grow as people, not just performers
Every chapter is built around a single goal:
To help you build better systems for athlete support — intentionally, holistically, and sustainably.
Who is this for?
This guide is for:
✅ New professionals entering player development
✅ Athletic departments building out their programming
✅ Veteran leaders looking to grow or reframe their approach
✅ Organizations that believe in supporting the whole athlete
If you care about the human behind the jersey, this book is for you.
Why it matters
Player development is no longer a luxury.
It’s a necessity.
Athletes today are facing more pressure, more uncertainty, and more distractions than ever before. If we don’t build intentional systems to support them beyond the game, we miss our chance to help them succeed in the game — and in life after it.
This guide is one small step toward equipping those of us doing that work.
📦 It’s printed. It’s practical. And it’s ready for your office shelf.
