Parental support and undertaking

For the children to develop physically and emotionally, team sport is the best way to help children. Generally youth sports develop life skills, promote a healthy lifestyle, and increase self-esteem. Unfortunately, as per the recent surveys as many as 50% of youth are forced to quit organized sports by age 12 because of too much pressure and competition.

Surveys among youth children reveal that 84% quit a team or wanted to quit and when they are asked why:

• Around 47% said that there is no fun in the game to continue
• Around 30% said that some teammates were mean
• Around 23% said that there were too many practices that interfered with other activities

Of the above, 31% feel that adults should not watch their games mainly because adults shout too much & more distracting, making players nervous and adding pressure on them to play better and win

That's why we say, a parent with a strong influence on our young players experience needs to take this pledge and help us make sure they have a fun, enjoyable Sports Experience
