Game On

Getting involved in sports is a great way to meet new people, build confidence, and maybe discover a new passion or hobby. From baseball and hockey, to chess and esports, it’s never been easier to find a sport that’s right for you.

Some of us have already discovered our favorite sport, while others haven't quite found theirs yet. This is perfectly ok, as choosing a favorite sport doesn't come naturally to everyone. There are many to choose from, and the options can seem overwhelming.  Luckily, there are different ways to find a particular sport that you can enjoy. This can be as easy as getting hooked onto a sport you play for the first time, as explained in this adorable short YouTube video, What Are Your Favorite Sports?
