SHORT SPORTS

Short Sports is a playful, high-energy program designed to introduce young children to the fundamentals of different sports in a fun, safe, and encouraging environment. Geared toward ages 3–5, each three-week session focuses on one sport—giving kids the chance to build basic skills, burn off energy, and develop confidence through active play.

Our goal is to spark a lifelong love of movement, teamwork, and trying new things—because at this age, it’s all about learning through fun!

See below for upcoming sport-specific session descriptions.
