Held in Conjunction with the Athletic Business Conference
November 28 - December 1, 2007, Orlando, Florida, USA

Become a part of the Game On! Youth Sports Network-

Game On! Youth Sports is an International Alliance for Youth Sports (IAYS) initiative that provides children around the world with opportunities to participate in healthy sports activities at the school, after-school and community levels.

Through Game On! Youth Sports, children are receiving sports equipment, participating in programs covering a wide range of sports, and developing the basic skills needed to play them. Furthermore, the program allows children who have a desire to continue on with their athletic careers to do so. An important component of Game On! Youth Sports is that it focuses on educating children on making healthy lifestyle decisions so that they aren’t tempted to turn to drug and alcohol abuse, or have their lives ruined by HIV/AIDS or other serious health issues associated with obesity and sedentary lifestyles.

Game On! Youth Sports has established a strong worldwide presence while impacting the lives of thousands of children. The Summit on Game On! Youth Sports is a great way for organizations, individuals and governments committed to making a difference in the lives of children to come together and learn how they can become part of this global movement to enact positive change. The Summit is a four-day event that is intertwined with the annual International Youth Sports Congress. The Congress is the only youth sports-specific educational event in the world that explores issues affecting youth sports and physical activity.
