Managing youth sports
When I moved to Navarre, I was amazed to hear how popular and wide-ranging youth sports are in this area. Having young kids, I had not yet been exposed to the sports mom life. Here, our children play sports year-round. Often, that’s the same sport throughout the year. It requires a lot of time, travel, money and more.

Wide eyed sports watchin’
Sometimes it’s hard to understand something just because you’re not familiar with it. When we moved here I was slightly annoyed that there was no one for my young kids to play outside with because they were all somewhere else playing “organized sports.” At 4 years old. I make fun of the word organized because if you’ve ever seen 4 year olds play soccer you know it’s about as organized as herding cats.
