Start Smart Program Prepares Kids for Sport
Northern Columbia Community and Cultural Center (N4Cs) will begin the Start Smart program on Tuesday, January 17. Classes will run from 5:00pm - 6:00pm through February 12. Cost is $30 for Members and $40 for Non-members. The minimum number of kids in the class is 6, with a maximum of 20.
The Start Smart program, created by the National Alliance for Youth Sports, helps kids get ready for sports...and succeed in life. It is an innovative step-by-step approach that builds confidence and self-esteem in a fun and safe sports environment. Start Smart was developed by the National Alliance for Youth Sports (NAYS) in response to a growing trend of children as young as 3 to 5 years old, entering the world of organized sports. During a Smart Stream session, children go to different stations where they practice exercises that help them develop motor skills and sports fundamentals to help prepare them for a smooth transition into organized sports in the future.
