HSA Philosophy

We believe each child should have the opportunity for a POSITIVE youth sports experience. Our programs allow each child equal playing time and the opportunity to try all positions, so they can learn the sport and enjoy the benefits of exercise and being on a team. No official score or league standings are kept. Without pressure to "win" coaches and kids are able to focus on skill development, teamwork and the FUN of the game at a young age.

Within each sport we limit the size of the team roster. We feel this allows for maximum participation for each child and is the best way to develop young children's aptitude for the sport they are playing. In addition we modify the rules for each age group (within their respective sport) which allows the child to learn according to their social and psychological timetables.

Each team should have 2 dedicated parent volunteers with a driven interest in creating positive environments in both practices and games. They take the time to learn more about the sport through coaches meetings and specific sport clinics before the season begins. In many cases every team has additional volunteer parents which allows for more individualized instruction.

All of this leads to greater success for the players and a better youth sports experience.
