The Positive Impact of Participating in Youth Sports


Tim Williams is a longtime real estate professional, having served as founder and president of Williams Research, Inc., a firm that offers commercial real estate valuation and GIS services. Idaho real estate appraiser Tim Williams also volunteers his time to coaching kids in little league baseball. In addition to physical benefits, team sports such as little league baseball may help children develop socially and emotionally.

According to the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), athletic participation among children may help ward off depression and suicidal thoughts. The NCBI also states that youth sports and physical activity can reduce rates of drug use and teenage pregnancy. This is likely due to team sports playing a role in improving self-esteem as well as developing a sense of camaraderie and acceptance among adolescents. Coach effectiveness training can help youth sports coaches develop the skills to create a positive environment for their players.

Adults wishing to donate their time to coaching team sports can reach out to local organizations and recreation centers for volunteer opportunities.
