He cited 40% of all kids report having been bullied at one time or another. Leigh encourages all athletes in his portfolio to work with kids at their high school and college to help pave the way for the next group of athletes and non-athletes as well. David and Leigh talk about how not all the sports is glamorous, and the hard work that goes into developing Steinberg clients for their big time play in the world and not just on in the stadiums and arenas where they excel.
