The stated mission of i9 Sports Youth Sports Leagues, Camps & Clinics is to help kids succeed in life through sports by providing a youth sports experience that teaches the importance of good sportsmanship on the field and in life. The program is described as the nation’s largest multi-sport provider focused solely on high-quality, community-based youth sports programs, with a commitment to age-appropriate instruction and programs that are designed to be convenient for busy families. Programs are optimized for developmental milestones at each age group, and each week one of nine sportsmanship values is integrated into practice and game play across all age groups, with a sportsmanship medal awarded to a player who best demonstrates the weekly value. The program includes a Parental Pledge for sidelines behavior, a refer-a-friend program that offers $10 off the next registration for every friend who registers, and an i9 Sports gear store for fans of all ages. Nike Kids Camps powered by i9 Sports are designed for campers ages 5–12, with age groups broken out to ensure age-appropriate skills, while youth soccer leagues are offered for kids ages 3–14 and youth basketball leagues are offered for kids ages 5–14. Flag football leagues frequently run year-round, are beginner-friendly, and are available nationwide. i9 Sports has been selected as a Project Play Champion by the Aspen Institute’s national Project Play initiative and is proud to support this initiative for encouraging multi-sport sampling and helping grow national youth sports participation rates. Franchise opportunities are available to open an i9 Sports franchise.
