WHY OPEN SPORTS?
WHY OPEN SPORTS?
Almost 80% low income kids in our area do not get to experience any sort of social environment with their peers and Open Sports thrives to allow them to connect, communicate and grow together.
Our main goal is to guide kids to having a good social life and strong connections with there peers. Mental health in kids can be heavily affects by the environment they are in and here at Open Sports we pride ourselves into creating that space for kids in need.
We decided to include and take donations in order to eliminate the cost of sports, making Open sports easy to access and stress free.
Over the years at Open Sports, we have had over 75 kids join and play. These kids have excelled in school and making friends after and we can see them grow into more confident kids and teens.
We have raised over $10,000 and have been able to expand our team and offer more sports and options for kids to feel included. We have also been able to purchase newer equipment, so they kids can have a fun and safe experience.
Open Sports is a top hit within towns and kids come from all over to join the free sports we have here in Wilmington Ma.
Families have come and watched the kids scrimmage and it gives the kids a full experience and a bit more of a competition feel, knowing they have family and friends watching.
Open Sports North Shore welcomes you with open arms and we hope to see you next season!
