South Side, Chicago, IL
Programming is shaped in partnership with the young people we serve.
We partner directly with schools to deliver structured in-school programming that integrates with the academic calendar and supports student success.
We work with community organizations to reach young people in their neighborhoods and create consistent, trusted touchpoints for engagement.
We bring programming to gyms, recreation centers, and community spaces, meeting young people where they already are.
Currently operating in Chicago. Our goal is to scale Smart Sports to communities across the country where young people need access to structured opportunity.
Whether you are a school, organization, or community leader, there is an opportunity to bring Smart Sports to more young people.
