Participating in youth sports leagues are a regular part of growing up, for most of us in North America. Physical activity is essential for healthy and optimal development, through childhood and early adulthood, and youth sports provide many opportunities for a physically active routine. Boosting the well-being of kids through this time can help your community’s future, as children who participate in such activities are better adjusted as they enter adulthood, with plenty of life skills and lessons under their belts.
