Kids play sports to have fun and to have fun with their buddies, and we have a lot of adults who try to vicariously live through their children to make them the next Michael Jordan or Barry Sanders. VAC officials plan to have their first soccer, T-ball, baseball and track and field training session at WSU on Saturday. The session is open to youth sports participants in Highland Park, Hamtramck and Detroit. Three other training sessions are also planned for March, July and November, including free mini-training sessions for local youth sports groups and organizations. Training is conducted by sports administration professionals from WSU, Eastern Michigan University, Michigan State University, the University of Michigan and the Michigan High School Athletic Association.
Sports is a vehicle that can be used to impact people's lives.
