Conventional wisdom holds that youth sports are a positive experience for our children, yet 70% of children drop out of organized athletics by the age of 13. Youth sports has become an ultra-competitive, adult centered enterprise that has taken the “play” out of “Play ball” or far too many kids, but we can change that. In this talk, you will learn:

• 3 Ways to Change Your Kids Sports Experience for the Better

• How To Motivate Your Kids to Take Ownership for Sports

• How to Help, and not Hinder, Their Performance Through the Things You Say and Do

Sponsored by Dover-Sherborn Challenge Success

8:15 a.m., Chickering Elementary (Cafeteria)
7 p.m., Dover-Sherborn High/Middle School Auditorium (Lindquist Commons)
