i9 Sports

Imagine you are in the arena. The lights are dimmed. The music starts pumping. The public address announcer starts slowly. Now starting... a new i9 Sports franchise... from Middle Tennessee State University... a former i9 Sports basketball coach... Derrick Hamilton! A special welcome to Derrick Hamilton as our newest i9 Sports Franchisee (aka Area Developer) in Clarksville, TN. A lover of sports since an early age, Derrick's passion grew during his 2 years as a volunteer basketball coach with i9 Sports. Derrick shared with us that it was this time as a volunteer that drove him to pursue a franchise, writing it was "during that time volunteering, I witnessed values and a culture that was synonymous to my own beliefs within youth sports. As a result, I became very intrigued by the opportunity to develop an i9 Sports Franchise under such a great brand. I chose the Clarksville area because I noticed a desire within the community to have a larger youth sports presence. I am beyond excited to be a member of the i9 Sports family, and look forward to making a positive impact within the Clarksville community." We look forward to supporting you, Derrick, as you make that impact!

The pressure to perform often takes the joy out of sports for young kids. Deliberate Play is an idea by psychologist Adam Grant that brings the focus back to the kids and the reason they're playing sports- it's fun!

It's #CoachesWeek! We are thrilled to honor an incredible coach and one of our board members - Chris Snyder, an i9 Sports VP and a former United States Olympic & Paralympic Committee staffer. He has shaped the lives of young people as a youth coach. However, he's made a significant impact on adults as a coach training developer. We're grateful and appreciative for the work that you do and the support to NCYS. Let's collectively share our appreciation with a photo or words for a coach that is making a difference or has made an impact. #NationalYouthSportsWeek

Kids play sports to have fun. For some kids, sports become an outlet, a way of life, even a dream. But no matter what their connection is to sports, it's more than just a game. Youth sports teach youth athletes teamwork, responsibility, leadership, and other life skills that help them succeed as they transition into each stage of life. This week, we are celebrating #NationalYouthSportsWeek with the National Council of Youth Sports by encouraging kids to keep swinging those bats, kicking those soccer balls, and shooting those foul shots! Even if you miss, you will still have memories and lessons that will last a lifetime. #YouthSports #Sports #Coaching #NCYS #YouthSportsWeek
