Maine's Sports Done Right

This afternoon, in the course of my continuing research for the update of Physical Activity Trends: Business and Policy Implications, I read Sports Done Right: A Call to Action on Behalf of Maine's Student Athletes. I found it to be a very inspiring document and concluded that, to the extent school and outside-school youth sports programs follow its 7 core principles and core practices for each principle and do not allow the practices it says are out of bounds, youth sports would actually live up to its ideals.

I wonder to what extent this document has actually influenced practice in Maine and across the USA.

I would welcome comments on that.
