Ten years ago, Jim Schindley watched a rec practice "kind of go wrong" and figured he could do better. He ended up growing Franklin Baseball Club from 800 kids to more than 1,300, building a Challenger League for kids with disabilities along the way — and he's not done yet.

Families overwhelmingly believe in the benefits of organized sports. But a new poll suggests the price of participation is determining who gets to play.

Middle Tennessee youth sports are growing fast, and families need a clearer way to keep up. From the proposed Banks at Brownland project in Franklin to the rise of hockey, soccer, lacrosse, baseball, and girls flag football, Beer League Live built the Youth Sports Hub to help parents find clubs, programs, calendars, and the next right step.

Thirty years of clinical practice. Three kids through the travel sports machine. One question nobody asks: What is the goal? Dr. Jean Lindscott and Dr. Ken Ruoff join the League to break down the youth sports industry — the money, the myths, and what it's actually doing to your kids.
