Whole Child Sports

JANUARY 6, 2020

As our children grow into physically active, upright beings and we introduce them to sports, we pass the coaching baton to others, hopeful that while playing sports with their peers, our kids will be taught new skills, make friends, and develop a passion for exercise. We do this because, as parents, we are our children’s first coaches.
