About Service in Sports

Our Organization

Service in Sports was founded to help support youth athletes who want to serve others and their communities through a scholarship program. Youth athletes will plan and/or participate in service opportunities in their communities and upon completion, will receive a scholarship to help offset the costs of participating in their sports programs. Both service and sport are rich with opportunities to develop oneself, build lifelong skills, and work as a team. 

Service is an integral part of building and practicing a variety of life skills including planning, communication, accountability, work ethic, and awareness. These skills extend beyond the court and will benefit our youth in their educational and professional pursuits as well.

​

We also work to partner with youth sport teams who want to provide a service learning opportunity for their teams. Examples of previous successful team events include park clean up, volunteering at an animal shelter, youth skills camps, and helping those who need household projects completed (yard clean up, moving, etc). Other projects might include organizing food, toy, winter clothing, or household item drives for those in need. Please contact us if you are interested in providing an opportunity for a team you are involved with and we will do everything we can to support you!
