Making Sports Accessible and Easy for Kids to Learn
-
At Future Fans, we make learning sports fun and easy for kids. Instead of explaining the rules of a sport directly, we embeds concepts into stories, parallen games, rhymes, and more!
EXAMPLE: Instead of trying to explain down in football, kids play a bean bag toss game with things like 4 tries and 6 points embedded into it. It's genius and kids pick up the concepts instantly.
