Multisport programs are a way to introduce children to a variety of quality sports and activities.
These programs align with the Long-Term Athlete Development Framework and provide an alternative to early sport specialization.
Participation in a range of sports at a young age supports physical literacy development. This foundation of skills, confidence, and motivation encourages growth in other developmental areas.
Although the concept is a sound one, not all multisport programs are created equal. Like any type of development, a multisport community has the best chance of success with a solid foundation.
The tools outlined below will get your community ready to begin its multisport journey!
