Our Mission

Our Mission is to create opportunities for children to obtain involvement in youth sports by promoting the importance of athletic activities in the lives of young people. In doing this, we hope to display how a student organization can positively impact a community while creating an enthusiastic social environment.

Brief Summary of the Organization

It is the belief of the Sports for Kids organization at Texas A&M University that involvement in youth organized sports is vital to the success of a child’s development. However, not every child is given the opportunity to participate in organized sports. There are usually two main barriers that keep children from having this opportunity: money and parental involvement. Sports for Kids is an organization that uses the efforts of students at Texas A&M to eliminate these barriers.
The organization has three major goals:

1. To introduce children into the world of sports and promote the importance of involvement in youth athletics.

2. To make involvement in organized sports accessible to all children interested in playing sports.

3. To have members enjoy their experience and realize the importance of their contribution to the community.
