Fall Sports Registration: What do You Need to Know?

 

That smell in the air, crisp colored leaves, a cuddly sweater; FALL is almost here … Well, probably not quite for those of us in Texas, but FALL SPORTS registration is definitely upon us. It is time to register your child for the Fall sports season that will run September through November.

Most organizations have already started registering and will close registrations mid August. It is not too late to get your youth involved in an organized team sport. Soccer, Volleyball, Baseball, Softball, Football and Ice Hockey are among the most popular sports. Our friends at Plano Sports Authority feel there is no greater investment in our community’s youth than the development of character, fellowship and sportsmanship through sports.

Whether you have preschoolers or school-aged children you can get them involved in a team sport. The sense of structure, working with others (the team) and listening to someone other than their parent (coach) are all valuable lessons that they can learn playing a team sport.
