TGA camps offer opportunities build friendships, learn about the academics behind sports, and stay active throughout the day. Studies have shown that more than 1 in 3 U.S. children and adolescents are considered overweight or obese. Children are also not getting enough physical activity or eating enough healthy foods; 92% of adolescents do not meet their daily requirement for physical activity. Summer is an at-risk time for juvenile crime and victimization, but we can help minimize those impacts by giving more kids a safe, fun, and educational environment at a TGA camp. The TGA Sports Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, is working nationwide with TGA chapters to send our youth to TGA summer camps.
