Project SCORE

SCORE (Sport COnnect and REspect) is a program of 10 lessons designed to join a deliberate approach to youth development and sport participation. This program aims to develop 4 main areas of sport development: confidence, competence, connection, and character. The program is based on research in sport psychology and youth development. The SCORE program also works to make information accessible to everyone by using technology to deliver the lessons and make it as simple as possible to get the information you need. The SCORE program will work with coaches and athletes to create a positive, interactive, and constructive sport experience for youth. By uniting life and sport, SCORE gives all participants an opportunity to have a more meaningful experience in sport. Let’s work to unite life and sport and support coaches and kids so that we ALL can SCORE. The project is being conducted by Drs. Leisha Strachan (University of Manitoba), Dany MacDonald (University of Prince Edward Island), and Jean Cote (Queen's University).
