InSports Foundation

Did you know that 27% of kids have lost interest in playing sports since the pandemic? We're dedicated to inspiring a love for the game and creating opportunities for youth to stay active, engaged, and connected. Let's continue to make a difference and help more kids get IN the game! https://lnkd.in/gZXHR49n

For every club broken, $1,000 is donated to First Tee - Minnesota to help more kids get IN the game of golf!

Friday was a very special ending to the inaugural Broken Club season. $20,000 was presented to the First Tee - Minnesota from the proceeds of our start up golf networking group powered by the InSports Foundation. 545 kids have been able to try golf for free through this funding. There are so many great life lessons from the game of golf, and we are hopeful that these kids will fall in love with the game. ⛳️ Thank you to all of our sponsors and members for making this possible 🙌 Learn more: https://lnkd.in/g7rrYKQY

Meet Ellie, a dedicated 9th grade student athlete! She’s a standout on the 14U National Softball Team and her school’s volleyball team. With big dreams of playing at the University of Minnesota and pursuing a career in medicine, Ellie is driven both on the field and in the classroom. Congrats Ellie, way to stay in the game and keep pushing toward your goals! https://lnkd.in/gEzpHxwG . . “Being a kid in sports is life-changing. It has helped me learn so many things that school doesn’t teach. I’ve learned how to be resilient, how to work with others, how to be self-confident, and, most importantly, how to be a leader.”

Summer 2024 has been a blast! We reached over 2,600 kids across the Twin Cities with free sports during summer school, and it quickly became their favorite part of the day! Not only did they have fun, but they also picked up some serious life skills like goal setting self regulation, and self-confidence through our Be the Best You Mental Health program. Big thanks to Scheels for helping us make this summer unforgettable! https://lnkd.in/gqyr8w_E
