Encourage them to be Active in Sports

We all have high hopes for our children. Our goal is that they will grow into well-rounded adults. We make sacrifices and provide them with the best opportunities possible. Sometimes, we are stuck in a fight for their attention because of television, video games, and other sedentary activities. Win the battle and make active fitness a priority.

As parents, we understand that the fundamentals of life start at home. We spend time caring for and encouraging our babies to crawl, our toddlers to dress themselves, and our teenagers to reach for the stars. We know what to do when they react with frustration because they don’t accomplish putting on their shoes. We gently come alongside them and encourage them to try again. We do that same thing when we watch their sports games, too – don’t we? Not necessarily! Sometimes, we act much like a toddler and less like an adult when we sit along the sidelines and scream out as our kids play their match.

Playing a sport teaches children the value of hard work and sportsmanship. It also prepares your athlete for their future when they take up a job and must work with a boss over them. The discipline of regular practices and teamwork cannot be understated. However, within the four leading roles of sports: player, referee, coach, and spectator, a nefarious new position has crept onto the scene – the sideline coach. There are many skills that games teach our children, but the sideline coach can negate all of them.

One thing that the COVID-19 pandemic has taught us is that when it is time to pivot, we can. Think about how many Canadians started working from home. We have learned to use curbside service for eating out and ordering online has become the primary way of making purchases, groceries included. Families have the opportunity to bond with dinner around the table and a game of hoops in the driveway. Dedicated athletes have changed their regular training in the gym for home options. The same holds for your budding Olympic contender.

Summer is the season of fun in the sun. Many children get to spend weeks away at various summer camps. From basketball to tennis to art, fostering a love for physical activity and culture remains a rite of passage for youth. However, this year may be a little different as Canadians around the country live through the restrictions of social distancing during the COVID-19 crisis. Parents now face the difficult decision of what to do with their kids since camp may not be in the cards.

When space is at a premium, it pays to have a trick or two up your sleeve. Gymnasiums that double as dance floors, wrestling rooms, and basketball courts benefit from wall-mounted basketball goals. These pieces of equipment suit a wide variety of indoor and outdoor courts.

Expect a rugged goal that allows for years of use, including the occasional slam dunk. The enthusiasts at Total Sport Solutions can assist you in finding the perfect target for your facility’s needs. Looking for something for the practice gym? We have the solution for you.

When you watch college or professional sports, it is easy to assume each player specialized in their chosen sport from an early age. Who can run 40 yards downfield and catch a pass effortlessly? Consider Olympic athletes. Every two years, the world gets to watch the best gymnasts, bobsled team, or 400-metre track star stand on the podium to receive their medal. It takes a little bit of talent and a whole lot of grit to perform at the levels of these athletes. You may think you should push your child to choose only one sport to excel at. That may be a mistake.
