Do you think more community-based programs like the ones highlighted in the documentary would provide a better sporting environment for all youth? Why or why not?

If so, why do you think you felt this pressure and describe the effect this had on you as a person and an athlete. Was this positive or negative? If not, why do you think you never felt this pressure?

  2. Do you think more community-based programs like the ones highlighted in the documentary would provide a better sporting environment for all youth? Why or why not?
