SMART Sports is a nonprofit organization that strives to integrate educational disciplines—science, math, arts, reading, and technology—with sports to provide a comprehensive and engaging learning experience for children. Founded on the principle that sports offer unique opportunities to teach essential skills and values that extend beyond the game, we promote a balanced approach to learning that combines physical activity with academic disciplines. SMART Sports’ mission is to use the power of sports to inspire, educate and transform lives.

Education is a key component of the SMART Sports (Science, Math, Art, Reading and Technology thru Sports) mission. We provide workshops and resources on topics such as nutrition, mental health, financial literacy and leadership development. By integrating these educational components with flag football activities, we deliver a holistic approach to youth development.

Our core initiatives include flag football leagues, school-based programs, and community events that provide opportunities for children and teens to engage in sport activities. These programs are designed to be inclusive, offering a safe and supportive environment for participants of all skill levels. We emphasize teamwork, discipline, and sportsmanship.

Community involvement is also at the heart of our work. Through our strategic partnerships we collaborate with various stakeholders to expand our reach and impact. These partnerships enable SMART Sports to deliver its programs to underserved populations, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to benefit from the transformative power of sport.

Ultimately, we believe youth who participate in our programs or clinics are developing skills thereby helping to create a generation of well-rounded young people who excel in both their academic and personal lives.
