Managing Life on the Sidelines

If your kids are playing sports on the fields and courts across the metropolitan Washington region, you may have had or heard questions like these bouncing around dinner tables, bleachers, cellphone calls and sidelines.


Where can my 10-year old learn lacrosse?

I need an orthopedic good with girls' knees.

How can we do a fundraising event?

How can we start a crew team?

You mean a D-3 college might consider my tennis player?

Where can I unload this unused set of junior golf clubs?

How do I get to the *#@*#@* field?

Good questions, but only a tiny portion of those that can arise during the years when you are supporting your kids' athletic endeavors.

What you need as a parent, but have not had until now, is a solid, trusted resource that helps you manage the time and money, to say nothing of the emotion, you will spend during these great years.

Whether your young athletes are off to play Division I football, or they're just happy to be part of a team with their pals, your concerns are identical: a quality experience, a healthy experience, a positive experience; an experience that you can enjoy together.

SportsParent has been created to help make that happen.

You will notice that none of the questions above are focused on game results, leagues standings or all-star selections. That is not our territory. Our job is to help you better manage time and resources by making it easy to locate information, services, organizations and people in the metro DC area and elsewhere.

Through online discussions, articles, equipment swaps, links, your own contributions and participation by specialists and experts, SportsParent will be the local resource you can count on to guide you and your young athletes. We look forward to your participation and to hearing from you about anything that can make the site better.
