Dr. Martin Toms, a former Ontario Soccer Summit presenter, recently hosted a webinar on early specialization vs multi-sport approaches. 

Toms is a senior lecturer in Sport Science at the University of Birmingham in England and he has expertise in youth sport, developmental socialization and talent development from the angles of both practical coaching and applied social-psychology.

He has a vast amount of experience in youth coaching with a deep focus on early engagement but late specialization. 

His presentation is engaging and informative on how coaches and parents can provide the best sporting environments for their children and players to succeed and continue competing well into adulthood. As a former youth and professional coach and current university lecturer, he has a wealth of knowledge and experiences that he draws upon to present his information to the audience.
