In order to respond to the increasing demand for more variety in programs, the Joy of Sports Foundation has developed programs that combine all of our core sports offerings, as well as our motor skills/ physical play (non-sport specific) components. These highly acclaimed programs are designed to offer children an enjoyable and enriching educational experience, especially in summer camps and programs lasting for more than eight weeks.

Depending upon the age group being served and the facilities available, the programs include a combination of the following activities: soccer, basketball, tennis and JSF’s Star Program (non-sport specific for pre-schoolers and grade schoolers). The “Plus” component can include: nutritional education, conflict resolution, environmental education, and an off-court life skills program. Camps can be offered during spring break, summer and other breaks in the school year. The beauty of this curriculum is that it can be customized on a very high level.

The goal of all JSF programs is to help participating children develop the life skills they need to succeed in school and in life. JSF uses a wide variety of physical activities to help children of all ages develop themselves in five key areas: concentration, relaxation, cooperation, imagination, and self-esteem. JSF is offering on-going Multi-Sport Plus after-school and summer camp programs in Washington DC, San Diego, and San Francisco.
