HELPFUL LINKS

Just a few links to some organizations that provide free information, videos, infographics, and other resources to help parents and coaches with a variety of topics.

MomsTeam

"Our mission is to provide youth sports stakeholders with comprehensive education, practical information, best practices and resources to keep all children safe physically, psychologically, and sexually while playing sports.

Stop Sports Injuries

"The STOP Sports Injuries educational initiative includes public service announcements, posters, brochures/fact sheets, electronic newsletter and an interactive website and other online outreach."

Safe Kids Worldwide

"Safe Kids Worldwide is a nonprofit organization working to help families and communities keep kids safe from injuries. Most people are surprised to learn preventable injuries are the #1 killer of kids in the United States. Throughout the world, almost one million children die of an injury each year, and almost every one of these tragedies is preventable."

Changing the Game Project

"The mission of the Changing the Game Project is to ensure that we return youth sports to our children, and put the ‘play’ back in ‘play ball.’  We want to provide the most influential adults in our children’s lives – their parents and coaches – with the information and resources they need to make sports a healthy, positive, and rewarding experience for their children, and their whole family.  Parenting and coaching young athletes is an art, not a science, and the information you find here can help you navigate the maze of youth sports, and put a smile on your young athlete’s face, whether he or she is 6 or 16 years old."

Women's Sports Foundation

Founded in 1974 by tennis legend, Billie Jean King, the Women’s Sports Foundation is dedicated to creating leaders by ensuring all girls access to sports. WSF provides financial fuel to aspiring champion athletes, fund groundbreaking research, educate, advocate, and help communities get girls active.
