We are supporting youth to create change in sports.

Millions of children in the United States and around the world do not have access to youth sports. Whether it's the high price of classes, expensive sports equipment, or difficulty finding transportation, inequities in youth sports block too many children from pursuing the activities that they love.

The benefits of participating in sports are immeasurable. Not only does it keep kids physically active, but mentally well and balanced. Sports develop confidence in children and teach skills such as self-discipline, teamwork, and perseverance. Kids who play sports do better in life.

Too often, our future changemakers are told "no" and are taught to remain complacent. When kids see a problem, we need to encourage them to do something about it, trust in their ideas, and support their potential.

Our Why

Our Solution: Build Leaders for Youth Sports

Leadership Program

We have a wonderful team of young Branch Leaders, coordinating Leaders for Youth Sports projects in their communities. Our Leaders conduct a multitude of different projects including equipment drives, equipment distributions, coaching clinics, and more.

We provide support to our leaders with our nonprofit status, custom toolkits, personalized advice, and a network of people.

Branch Program

Our experienced Project Leaders are able to apply to become Branch Leaders to widen their impact. Starting a Leaders for Youth Sports Branch gives youth the opportunity to learn how to host more complex events that may involve finances such as run/walk events and sports days. With the benefit of our curated event toolkits, Branch Advisors providing personalized advice, nonprofit status for ease of receiving partnerships, and possible financial support, starting a Branch is a great way to learn new skills and drive lasting change.

Branch Leaders have the opportunity to be selected for our Team of Advisors.
