Craig Perry discusses the pros and cons of The Paradox of Sport. The pros are that administrators of high school sports are striving to create a culture that maximizes the joyous, exhilarating, and excellent experiences for all involved. Their role is to ensure and support that everyone is raised-up and that they have a real obsession and dedication to growth and development. The cons deal with the mental health of administrators in that striving for perfection and success gets in the way of self-supporting and help-seeking behavior. Administrators tend to serve others before themselves.
