Our goal is to connect Athletes, Parents, Coaches, Athletic Directors and anybody with a passion for sports. Our mission is to educate and promote the Education-Based Athletics philosophy. Sports is more than the result on the scoreboard. It is a metaphor for life and the skills learned through sports directly transfer to anything we do down the road. More important than creating better athletes is to create better people. With our podcast, we interview interesting people in the world of sports and ask them about their experiences and to get their unique perspective on the lessons they learned through sports.

Brendan Tobin: Athletics Director of the Tashkent International School - Silver Linings During a Pandemic
For our new Athletics for Life Podcast episode, we interviewed the Athletics Director of the Tashkent International School Brendan Tobin. We wanted to talk with Brendan as he organized a very successful virtual cross-country event. Many international schools from all over the globe participated in the Tashkent Virtual XC. Brendan explained his rationale for hosting this event, what went well and what would he have done differently. This interview will definitely help Athletic Directors that are interested to host a virtual event but might be hesitative to actually go for it. We want to thank Brendan for sharing his experiences with us and his support of the educational-based athletics philosophy.
Quote: 'It is so important that we try to give our student-athletes an opportunity to connect with each other, and sports is the perfect vehicle to support that'
