WE MAKE PLAY POSSIBLE!
We Play Foundation provides need-based scholarships for kids to participate in sports.
As our name implies, the We Play Foundation believes every kid should get the chance to play sports. Sports teach valuable life skills and positively impact our youth in a fun, healthy way. All kids deserve the opportunity to work on their mental & emotional development, physical fitness, and confidence-building. Sports teams provide these opportunities for development and teach the importance of teamwork.
The rising cost of youth sports has become the primary barrier to participation. The We Play Foundation strives to create access for more athletes by paying for sports-related costs including registration fees, equipment, and travel costs.
Our Vision
To encourage kids to become multi-sport athletes and remove any financial barriers to participation in sports.
We follow the Long Term Athlete Development (LTAD) program, which is a stage-by-stage approach that gives every child the greatest opportunity to engage in lifelong, health-enhancing physical activity, and ultimately maximize their full potential. This is achieved by encouraging multi-sport participation and proper development-to-competition ratios.
Other benefits of various sports include exposing kids to a variety of physical literacy skills, allowing them to improve their social skills, and increasing their enjoyment of physical and emotional activities through sports. It prepares them for a lifetime of physical activity, connections, and positive experiences.
