Welcome to the web page home of Sportz Plus
Canada!
Sportz Plus
Canada is a non-denominational Canadian organization that
works with various Christian churches to encourage and enable
them in the operation of local recreational sports leagues that
integrate sports with Biblically based life principles.
At Sportz Plus Canada, we recognize the tremendous physical and
social development that occurs when children are involved in
recreational sports. However, our goal is not to make children into
better athletes. Rather, the goal of Sportz
Plus Canada
is to make
children into better people.
We do this by combining the
competitiveness of a short term sports
league and the skills development of
regular, but optional practices, with the
weekly presentation of the Coach's
Devotional Corner. This is where Biblically
based life principles are shared in
relevant, sports connected and age
appropriate ways, as the basic
foundation for a complete, well balanced
life.
The five E's of Sportz Plus
Canada!
- Enjoyable - Sports should be about having fun! There are no
signing bonuses in our leagues and playing in them will probably
not be a
career choice.
- Encouraging - It is easier to give criticism than
encouragement, but it is encouragement that yields the greatest
return in children's lives.
- Educational - All of life is a
learning experience! The skills learned
one week in practice may be next week's
"highlight".
- Equipping
- There is more to
life than sports, which is why it is
important to begin early to build a
strong foundation for life.
- Encompassing - While all of our
leagues operate in connection with a
local Christian church, you don't need
to be a member of that particular church
or any other church for that matter to
participate in the Sportz Plus
Canada
league.
