About The Webinar

In today’s game, players are training more, playing more, and competing in increasingly demanding environments. But one of the biggest gaps in development is not effort — it’s recovery. This webinar will break down what effective recovery actually looks like for youth and high school players, and why it has become a key part of long-term performance.

Led by New England Surf Sports Performance Technical Lead Brian Gheorghiu, this session will focus on simple, practical strategies that players and families can implement immediately. From sleep and nutrition to managing game schedules and training loads, the goal is to give clear guidance on how to support performance without adding unnecessary complexity.

For players, this is about taking ownership of your development and building habits that give you an edge. For parents, it’s an opportunity to better understand how to support your athlete in a way that actually impacts performance, health, and enjoyment of the game. In a landscape where “more” is often seen as better, this session will challenge that thinking — and show why smarter habits are what truly separate players over time.
