SPORTBALL Sportball is a non-competitive skill based sports program for children children ages 2 to 8. The Sportball curriculum focuses on learning to play 7 different ball sports (baseball, basketball, hockey, soccer, tennis, volleyball and golf.) The program is structured to assure that skills are refined and that children are challenged according to their readiness and experience.
