210 Building a Better Support System for Youth Sports with Proteqt365 Founder David Lipetz

Youth athletes are training like professionals, but parents often lack the support to navigate decisions about their health and performance. David Lipetz, Founder and CEO of Proteqt365, joins the Sports Business Leaders Podcast to discuss the “gray areas” of youth sports—when parents aren’t sure whether their child should push, pause, or seek help. Drawing on nearly three decades of experience working with athletes and families, David explains how Proteqt365 provides structure and clarity without replacing coaches or medical care. We also explore how he’s building the business through trusted relationships with clubs, academies, and athlete ambassadors, why partnership agreements don’t always translate into immediate adoption, and what entrepreneurs can learn from selling around the youth sports calendar.
