Sports Buddies
Sports Buddies program is designed to provide mentors and youth the opportunity to interact with other male matches through attendance at sporting events and participation in monthly group activities. Statistics show that the average child spends more time per year watching television than attending school. Our goal is to motivate youth to become more active and maintain a healthy lifestyle. This is a program for sports enthusiasts ready, willing and able to volunteer as a mentor. Sports teach life skills, goal setting, character, and sportsmanship.
Volunteering in the Sports Buddies Program includes:
- Tickets to sporting events during the year
- Low or no cost activities (one activity provided per month)
- Participatory activities such as swimming, weight lifting, basketball, bike riding, etc.
- Calendar of events and discounted activities in the community
- 6-month commitment
- Meet 2+ times a month
Mentors and youth will receive monthly tickets to area sporting events including: Green Bay Blizzard, Green Bay Bullfrogs, Green Bay Gamblers, and UWGB Men's and Women's Basketball. Along with free tickets, a monthly group activity (weightlifting, baseball, basketball, etc.) will take place.
