In this episode, we explore how ecological dynamics continues to reshape the way we think about skill development. Keith shares insights from recent PhD research, including work examining whether virtual reality can help children develop risk assessment skills. The bigger issue? Many young athletes today grow up with fewer opportunities for unstructured play, meaning less exploration, less calibration, and weaker perceptual–motor foundations. We unpack what this means for coaches.
