SPORTS Youth Skyhawks Camps Since 2002, SuperTots has engaged kids, ages 2 to 5, in physical activity in a noncompetitive environment that is safe and fun, above all else. SuperTots knows kids are hardwired to learn through play. For that reason, they’ve designed an engaging, skill-building curriculum in which “tots” learn through a series of fun games. They will acquire athletic skills and fitness, but also develop an interest and love of sports. Programs run 50 minutes and meet once a week for six weeks at a time. All programs are $89. Please view their website at www.skyhawks.com/colorado to register for camp and to find additional information. Camps: SoccerTots is their flagship program. Playable on almost any surface, these soccer-themed motor skill classes are very easy for youngsters to get into. Younger age groups focus on developing motor skills and self-confidence; older classes focus more on developing core soccer skills and personal focus, and introduce an element of light competition. The instructor-to-student ratio is kept small to maximize individual development, and, above all else, they promote fun, fun, fun!
38
1stDownTots (Football) is a development program that uses a variety of fun games to engage kids while teaching the sport of football and developing fundamental skills.

Sport-Specific Requirements: • Participant-to-coach ratio: 8:1 (SuperTots) • Gear to bring: Appropriate clothing, water bottle, and running shoes • Food to bring: Two snacks and water bottle Registration Deadline: See www.skyhawks.com/colorado Location: Eastman Park (if there is inclement weather, will be moved to Windsor CRC)
