Good Sports, Inc.

20 incredible, impactful and passionate years. That is what we're celebrating this year. But how did we get here? We have made tremendous impact in youth sports over the past 20 years, but wouldn't have been able to do so without the support of so many along the way. Watch and learn about the journey of Good Sports here. #GoodSports #KidsWhoPlayDoBetter #PlayForAll

We are thrilled to share that Curtis Granderson, aka “Grandyman”, former MLB outfielder and philanthropic leader for several non-profit organizations – the Grand Kids Foundation, Grand Giving and Chicago Baseball & Educational Academy will be joining us for a fireside chat at Chicago Legends on Thursday September 19th. While the three-time MLB All-Star and Roberto Clemente Award winner played in many cities throughout his career, he was born and raised in Chicago and it’s the city he calls home. His passion for fostering deeper community connections in Chicago, while working to diversify the sport, is paving the way for more young kids to learn and grow through baseball.

We continue to be blown away by our partnership with The Lids Foundation. Thanks to their continued support, nearly an additional 2,500 young athletes from coast to coast...literally from Portland to NYC...have received the equipment they need to continue to play the sports they love. And as if this couldn't be any cooler, the Lids Foundation and Good Sports were able to support 9 different sports including handball, lacrosse, and track!

Here at Good Sports, we believe that ALL kids should have access to ALL sports. That's why we've started our #SheWhoPlays intitiatve to ensure that girls have just as much access to the same sports as boys, including flag football 🏈 We are so grateful for our partners like the NEW BALANCE FOUNDATION that help us make sports dreams come true for girls around the country. Read below to see the impact that was made on a local girl's flag football program! #PlayForAll
