Enhancing the Positive Impact Of Sports.
Good Sports Make Good People.Through it’s charitable affiliate, the St. Louis Sports Foundation, the St. Louis Sports Commission implements programs that foster a culture of sportsmanship in St. Louis. Reaching parents, coaches and young athletes, the organization creates positive experiences for kids to play sports so they remain active and lead healthier, happier lives.
By focusing on sportsmanship and character development in athletics, the Sports Commission contributes to the well-being of young people in the region. This makes St. Louis an even more desirable place to live and raise a family as parents know their children’s sports experience will be better here than anywhere in the country.
