Start Smart Lessons

Start Smart was developed by top motor skill development specialists in the field of youth sports. Child-parent groups perform motor skill tasks that gradually build confidence in children while having fun at the same time.

Start Smart Sports include basketball (ages 3-6), soccer (ages 3-5), golf (ages 5-7), baseball (ages 3-5), and football (ages 4-6).

Participants will develop proper motor skills without the threat of competition or the fear of getting hurt, allowing them to enjoy and succeed in their youth sports future!

  • Start Smart introductory sports are for children ages of 3 to 7 and a parent.
  • A parent, guardian, or other adult is needed to participate in the program with their child.
  • Equipment: All Start Smart lessons (except golf) require participants to provide their own equipment. A kit may be purchased through JC Parks if needed or purchased independently.
