Through non-competitive play, our poet-athletes learn new skills while taking healthy risks in a safe, strengths-based environment. Fun on the field fosters an enjoyment of being active, while also developing social skills and leadership practices critical to successful teamwork. Soccer is played in the Fall and Spring Seasons, including four Game Days and a Tournament at Starfire Sports Complex!
Poetry is a vehicle to accessing language; with more freedom in usage and expression it enables our poet-athletes to overcome language barriers and find their unique voice. Writing with SCORES aids in development of reading and writing skills while encouraging self reflection and creative expression. Poetry is the writing focus of Fall Season, culminating each year with a community Poetry Slam!
Poet-Athletes take a critical and creative look at their communities, identifying assets, needs and thoughtful ways to address their findings through a youth led community service project. They take ownership, create action plans, complete their projects and reflect on their work. Community is the writing focus of the Spring Season, concluding with a Community Shout event showcasing their projects!
