ABOUT

SportSmart

The mission of SportSmart is to introduce young children to the foundational principles of sport psychology, helping them unlock the tools they need to thrive both on and off the field. By empowering young athletes to develop critical mental skills to Play the Right Way.

​​​

What does it mean to PLAY THE RIGHT WAY? It means you: 

  • ​​​​Stay mentally strong, disciplined, and focused on the moment. ​​

  • Let the game guide your choices—shoot when the opportunity is there, pass when it’s not, and never force the play. ​​

  • Show up ready to work, stay committed to improvement, and compete with intensity.

  • ​​Above all, respect your team, your opponents, your coaches, and the game itself—because playing the right way isn’t just about winning, it’s about how you approach the game.
