Y2S Sports

Replacing the skills of the ball with the mind, and the only competition is with who you were yesterday.

Group of kids hanging out after Youth To Society Sports which focuses on developing kids social skills

Life Skills Through Sports

Through the lessons of sports and team-based community service projects, we give kids a real-world platform to practice resilience, teamwork, and leadership on and off the field. This prepares them to improve as athletes, teammates, and future leaders.

“We cannot always build the future for our youth, but we can build our youth for the future.” –Franklin D Roosevelt

Athlete

With sports becoming more competitive, kids are going to need more than just technique to stand out. We provide kids with the tools and skills that will improve the other half of what makes a great athlete: the mental game

Through our community service project, and pairing up with a buddy each season we create teachable moments to help kids build teamwork skills to be a better teammate on the field and friend off the field.

Leader

Kids don’t just follow instructions; they take the lead. Whether it’s running a drill, making team decisions during scrimmages, or helping organize practice, players learn how to speak up, make decisions, communicate, and encourage others

Training for the future

Character Development

Our program uses an explicit approach to develop life skills through sports, community service, and team-building exercises

ALTRUISM

Through community service, youth can directly witness the benefits of helping others without expecting anything in return except the satisfaction of making a positive difference in their community, which is the basis of nurturing a sense of altruism.

Sportsmanship

By emphasizing respect, fairness, and positive behavior in our program, players learn to value good conduct and are encouraged to support teammates, respect opponents, and handle wins and losses gracefully.

Empathy

Building empathy through activities such as community service encourages understanding and appreciation of diverse perspectives and develops compassion toward others.

Emotional Intelligence

Sports provide a natural setting for kids to experience various emotions. Our curriculum is designed around creating opportunities to help youth understand and manage these emotions in different settings.

LEADERSHIP

Playing in a team teaches kids the importance of collaboration, communication, and leadership. We emphasize these skills during practices, helping them understand different ways to be a leader, work with others, lead by example, and support their peers.

TEAMWORK

Our program teaches teamwork by incorporating collaborative activities and group projects into every aspect of the experience. Youth work together in sports, community service, and team-building exercises, where they learn to communicate effectively, share responsibilities, and support one another.

Growth Mindset

We encourage players to embrace challenges, learn from feedback, and persist through difficulties by creating an environment where effort and improvement are celebrated, and mistakes are opportunities to learn
