Another winter youth basketball season tipped off last weekend as area boys and girls programs ranging from kindergarten through eighth grade levels took over every available gym space.
As an area youth coach and program coordinator, I was again reminded that the kids are often fine. But it is the adults who have to be reminded to play nice.
That is why many programs require parents to sign sportsmanship agreements.
What have we come to you may ask?
Last Saturday and Sunday served as a reminder of the good and bad side of youth sports, which certainly have changed a lot since I was first introduced to Dr. Naismith's invention.
