Question 2

The “BG Bedok Rovers” is a youth football team in Singapore comprising players aged 12 – 15. Despite strong interest at the start of the season, the team faces a worrying trend: midseason, 30% of players drop out. Parents express concerns about excessive training, academic pressure, and limited playing time. Players reported that they are feeling disconnected, demotivated, or left out.

As the newly appointed head coach, identify the possible key issues and design a step-by-step intervention strategy to reduce dropout. Consider communication, team culture, and parental involvement. (Word limit: 650 words)
