“Just Let the Kids Play”:

Many of you have already received emails for the “Just Let the Kid Play” presentation on March 24^th (7:00) at the LS auditorium.  In that respect, I’d like to explain the reason why the high school and our town youth sports programs have sponsored this presentation and why you should attend.

Times have certainly changed since we played sports as a kid.  The demands, peer pressures and many other influences have placed and unjustly burden upon our kids and families upon playing youth sports.  Thankfully, clear heads at LS and the youth programs have recognized there has to be a better way to “Just Let the Kid Play”.

This presentation is focused to present values and ideas to parents, coaches and leaders in the youth programs to work together to put the kids first so they can enjoy all sports that they choose to participate. 

As a first step, several youth sport programs are trying to reach out to each other to minimize conflicts for practice and game times.   This one of many changes that we, as parents, coaches and teachers, can help our children enjoy youth sports.

We encourage you to attend this meeting and become involved with your youth programs.
