Sports, Recreation & Fitness

The Triple Play national program takes a holistic approach to educating boys and girls about good nutrition, making physical fitness a daily practice, and developing individual strengths and good character. In addition to components for the mind and body, the Triple Play program gets at the soul of the Club experience – the gamesroom.  Each of the Mind, Body and Soul program components can stand alone, yet integrating them allows Club members to reap more powerful, lifelong benefits. 

Mind

Empowering youth to eat right is a generation-changing, life-enhancing program goal. Triple Play’s nutrition components, Healthy Habits, covers the power of choice, calories, vitamins and minerals, the food pyramid and appropriate portion size. 

Body 

Taking a systematic approach, this component boosts Clubs’ traditional physical activities to a higher level by providing sports and fitness activities for all youth – boys and girls, athletically gifted and those talented in other areas, children and teens alike.  Daily Fitness Challenges - six challenges give youth at every age the chance to play longer and harder at different games – from jumping rope to basketball to creating games of their own.
