Just like character development, promoting self-esteem in young athletes depends on how sport is presented. If sport is presented in a way that instills confidence and security, sport can instill or improve self-esteem. Once again, it is not the sport itself that instills self-esteem, but rather the way the sport is presented. However, there is a link between self-esteem and physical activity that may have a lot to do with why and how young players can develop healthy self-esteem through sports. “Furthermore, in terms of child development, positive parental involvement can help develop important skills such as self-esteem, motivation and social skills” (Quinton)
