Quality Sport Workshops and Resources
A successful, positive experience in sport and physical activity can ensure participants at all levels choose to stay active for life. Quality programming is developmentally appropriate, safe, inclusive, and well-run.
The goal of Quality in Sport programing is to create positive experiences in supportive environments. Ultimately, if sport participation and physical activity isn’t fun, progressive, positive, or welcoming, participants will likely not continue to participate.
Successful programs are purposefully and appropriately designed with a participant focus. They are run by responsible, trained coaches and leaders, and are successful through assistance from knowledgable parents and supportive partners. The welcoming nature of these programs should evoke feelings of inclusivity, fun, fairness, and safety.
