Kids Sports Network
Growing up from a broken home I know that it’s very hard as a kid looking for direction to take in life. Most think that kids don’t have any worries because all they’re concerned with is playing video games or playing with their friends. My parents went through a rocky divorce around the time I was five years old and if I didn’t have sports to help me vent my frustration and provide a sort of mentorship for me, I may have had a different path in life. I’m looking at starting a non-profit organization for kids from broken homes that utilizes sports to help them cope with the stress that they’re under and other problems in life. The premise of the organization is to not only use sports as an outlet for pent up emotions, but to provide mentorship and direction for those children that may have none. I would like to help kids from the ages of 4-13 because these are great years to build this foundation for children to handle the problems they will face going through adolescence. I will go on to talk about an organization that works along the same lines to improve the quality of sports not associated with schools for children.
