Dads, Kids, & Sports!

Daddy Planet loves sports, and thinks it is great that Dads and their children join their local community sports programs. In today's world, kids need exercise, and so do us dads.

When is the best time to enroll your child in the local sports programs? Most local communities have sporting programs that begin at age 3. Dads can request to be a coach, assistant coach, or a helper. Most programs offer basketball, baseball, soccer, swimming, golf, and a few others at age 3. At age 5, tennis and football come into play as well as a few other sports.

Where to look for the sporting programs in your community? Look online for the local sports programs for youth, or contact your Boys and Girls club, YMCA, or another facility that focuses on youth and sports.

How much do they cost? It depends on each program and what they offer, and the length of the program. We have seen programs from $30-70.00 dollars, some last 4 weeks and others last 8 weeks. Some give out all the equipment needed for the sport, including a trophy and tshirt, others do not. Check out the details of each program, and ask questions.

Your child will love learning a new sport, meeting new friends, and the bonding experience with Dad. Daddy Planet knows Dad will enjoy it too!
