At Liberty Mutual Insurance Play Positive™ we encourage parents to help youth athletes deal with the pressures and stresses that accompany youth sports. That starts with reminding them that the sport is about more than just winning and should be fun.
There are many ways to support youth athletes and encourage a focus on fun and what we call “low-stress success.” One of those ways is through listening to music.
We asked U.S. Freeskiing athlete Angeli VanLaanen to share her playlist of the top 5 songs she listens to when preparing for a big competition:
1. Jealous (I ain’t with it) – Chromeo
2. All Night – Icona Pop
3. Walking On A Dream – Empire of the Sun
4. Walk On By (Sound Remedy Remix) – Noosa
5. Am I Wrong? – Nico & Vinz
See the lists of Top 5 Songs for Pre-Game Low-Stress Success from other elite athletes in our exclusive TAKE 5 interviews.
Sit with your youth athlete and help them develop a playlist to deal with stressful situations and remind them that taking part in youth sports should be fun!

At Liberty Mutual Insurance, we constantly look for ways to celebrate the countless acts of sportsmanship and integrity shown by people every day. We created Play Positive™, powered by Positive Coaching Alliance, as part of this belief to help ensure that our kids experience the best that sports have to offer in environments that promote and display good sportsmanship. We believe kids can learn valuable life lessons when coaches and parents come together to support winning on and off the slopes.
