When children say they hate sports or they don’t want to play, it is usually because they feel self-conscious about their skill level as compared with other “typical” children their age. At Harbor Haven, we not only build up skills, but self-esteem, in our renowned sports program. While soccer, softball, basketball, field hockey, volleyball, kickball and tennis are all part of our program, we break each one down into components and teach them one at a time. We adapt games as needed, but our ultimate goal with our campers is to build their confidence and ability enough to join in at recess time in school, or feel comfortable in gym class. Most groups attend sports period once or twice a day, with our trained, professional sports staff. A systematic approach to skills building is used, with each day building upon the next.
