Kingsport Parks and Recreation is pleased to announce Girls in Sports Day – a one-day program offering a variety of sports demonstrations and activities for girls of all ages.
Participating in sports provides numerous benefits for girls – learning teamwork and cooperation, improving physical and mental health and creating higher self-esteem. Engaging in athletics builds life skills well beyond the playing field.
Girls in Sports Day will take place on August 29 from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. at the V.O. Dobbins, Sr. Complex (301 Louis Street). The event is free and open to girls of all ages. Participants can expect to see hands-on sports demonstrations, skill-building activities and team challenges featuring basketball, soccer, volleyball, softball and flag football.
Participants will also have the opportunity to meet and talk to Milligan University athletes and Courtney Whitson – head girls basketball coach at Dobyns- Bennett High School – about their stories, while gaining valuable insight into their athletic journeys.
“Whether you’re new to sports or already an athlete, this event is a wonderful opportunity to meet and learn from your peers,” said Program Administrator Erin Larkin. “At the same time, maybe you’ll make some new friends or take an interest in a new sport you’ve never played before.”
