What is the Health Huddle?
The Health Huddle was created in 2019 in order to expand our reach beyond the playing field as we help parents, coaches and patrons tackle the “whole child” in mind, body and health. Today's youth are dealing with a mental health crises, obesity or lack of nutrition, technology distractions, social media, specialization in sport and more. By providing educational content, virtual learning series, coach certification and education we are working to address youth where it matters most. Join us!
