Sports programs and activities

Extracurricular activities and programs round out a child’s learning experience. A wide variety of sport programs are available in your area, throughout the school year and into summer. Whether you are looking for a sport program ofor your child to participate in on a weeknight or weekend during the school year, or a sporting activity during March, winter, or summer break, there are plenty of options. For instance, there are swimming, tennis, golf, karate, taekwondo, ultimate frisbee, rugby, and dance camps and lessons. 

Getting the most out of your child’s sport activity requires you to choose wisely. Pick a sport that your child is interested in and excited about. If they are excited to participate then they will be motivated to do well. If your child has friends that are already involved in a sport program then that may be an additional motivation for them to get involved. The key is to ensure your child has fun and tries their best. Keep in mind that a balance between education and extracurricular activities is necessary to avoid stress and burnout for your child.
