Sports BUDDIES

ABOUT THE PROGRAM

Sports Buddies is a one-to-one mentoring program that connects mentors and youth through shared participation in sports and activities that support a healthy, active lifestyle.

Matches attend one or two events per month – organized by BBBS staff and include activities like soccer, basketball, frisbee, kite flying, walking, flag football, hiking, rock climbing, softball, and more!

Through this one-year commitment, youth will develop interpersonal skills, a growth mindset, and a sense of accomplishment by trying new sports, physical activities and learning to play on a team.
