Start Smart


Overview

Start Smart was developed by top motor skill development specialists in the field of youth sports. Parent-child groups perform motor skill tasks that gradually build confidence in children while they are having fun at the same time.

Start Smart participants will develop proper motor skills without the threat of competition or the fear of getting hurt that will allow them to enjoy and succeed in their youth sports future!

What is Start Smart?


Programs

Start Smart currently offers eight different sports programs. Each program is designed to give participants an opportunity to develop their sports skills in a fun and safe environment while working and spending quality one-on-one time with their parent. All Start Smart programs feature age appropriate equipment and developmentally appropriate exercises.
