Our very own Dr. Erika Pruss, pediatrician & sports medicine doctor, along with Emily Bhattacharjee, Clinical Dietitian, & Jessica Garfin, Physical Therapist, led a sports nutrition lecture for the kids attending the Lets Go South Bay annual Girls’ Empowerment Soccer Camp. ⚽️ Supported by the Alex Morgan Foundation, the camp offers 65 teen girls free on-field training & confidence-building sessions. This annual summer camp empowers girls, especially in BIPOC communities, by providing opportunities often lacking in sports."

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), around 14.7 million kids and teens are affected by obesity – that's a pretty big number! As we enter June, we also enter Sports America Kids Month – a timely reminder of the importance of promoting an active and healthy lifestyle among our youth. So, let's come together and inspire our kids to join sports teams and enjoy outdoor activities. It's not just about about playing around outside – sports teach our kids valuable life skills, boost confidence, and promote physical well-being. Let's make the most of this month to support our young athletes and help them create wonderful memories on the field, court, or playground. How do you plan to celebrate Sports America Kids Month?
