This practical, two hour , interactive workshop aims to provide participants with the tools required to promote and support a youth sport environment that emphasizes sportsmanship, integrity and tolerance.
Youth sports can and should unite community. Youth sports can and should foster good citizenship, as well as, serve the needs of ALL children within the community. We can show you how!
Workshop themes will include:
Evolution of organized youth sport and sportsmanship
Identifying the priorities of organized youth sport - play vs. competition
Establishing core values and programs of accountability for organized youth sport and youth sport associations
Doing nothing - the impact of poor sportsmanship on our children and our communities
Creating a system that makes everyone feel like a winner
The roles of coaches, parents and players
Steps toward change - what can be done and how to do it. Never has there been a greater need for the examination and discussion of the problems inherent in youth sport today.
Reality check:
The solution is NOT to figure out how to meet adult expectations, but how to serve the needs of children at play.
- Fred Engh, president of National Alliance of Youth Sports
