Tops Sports Development Program To Be Offered By Recreation Department

It is an innovative step-by-step approach provided by the Start Smart Supplemental Activities and Games Program that builds confidence and self-esteem in a fun and safe sports environment. Programs include Baseball, Basketball, Field Hockey, Football, Golf, Lacrosse, Soccer and Tennis. The program will also provide parents/guardians with an opportunity to join the program with their child. During the developmental program children will experience different sports each week where they practice exercises that help them develop motor skills and sport fundamentals.
