Isaiah Clarke's reflections on working with Ice Hockey In Harlem: Volunteering with Ice Hockey in Harlem is incredibly meaningful to me because it gives me the opportunity to inspire, mentor, and support the next generation in ways that I wish I had growing up in NYC. Reflecting on my own experiences as a young person, I remember the challenges I faced and the lack of resources I had access to growing up in NYC. That’s why it’s so important for me to be an ally and resource for youth in similar situations today. This Year, I had the privilege of speaking at Ice Hockey in Harlem’s speaker series. Huge thanks to Malik Garvin and the IHIH team for the opportunity! I shared my personal story, the obstacles I’ve overcome, and how I navigated a path toward success. We talked about the importance of gaining awareness of resources, learning valuable skills, and discovering opportunities in the tech and professional world—areas they may not yet be familiar with. This type of work is a core part of my why, and I’m grateful to be able to give back in such a meaningful way.

Did you know that promoting youth sports engagement can improve adult fan commitment by 55%? The NHL and NHLPA have mastered this approach through impactful programs and initiatives for youth. Learn to Play is one of their standout programs, which is designed to help more families join the hockey community. It reduces barriers to entry by providing young players with equipment, ice time, and coaching, and helps them discover their love for the game. The value of learning to play hockey goes beyond skating and puck-handling skills. It helps kids to develop life skills such as responsibility, respect, perseverance, and teamwork. By learning to fall and get back up again, they’re teaching kids to be resilient while they create memories with new friends. Investing in the youth of today means more passionate fans for a lifetime. #NHL #hockey #sportsindustry

Transforming pre-game nerves into lifelong confidence! ???? At the U.S. Soccer Foundation, we believe in the power of soccer to shape young lives both on and off the field. When a child steps onto the pitch, they're not just learning soccer skills—they're gaining resilience, teamwork, and the self-assurance to tackle any challenge. It's about more than scoring goals; it's about scoring big in life. #SoccerDoes even more ?? soccerdoes.org

During USA Basketball Camp, we do a daily workshop to cover the word of the day and address any issues that we see infiltrating the attitudes and chemistry of our campers. As former professional players, playing basketball at every level imaginable in multiple countries, we hope to provide our vast experience for the benefit of every level of player. Most of the kids that come through USA Basketball Camp, are underdogs. Either they are just figuring out that they love basketball...or they have aspirations of playing at a higher level and realize where they are at now, is insufficient to get them there. Whatever the motivation, the sklil set level, or the experience of the players, you can always learn something to add to your tool kit of skills and abilities. Analysing the game in real time, and the ability to implement those changes quickly, is the highest level of execution. This is literally why you practice. Honing your skills in practice, breaking down the obstacles that might present themselves, creating various scenarios and then applying what you have learned…in real time. During a season, most European club teams at the lower levels do not have the gym time to get into this kind of detail. We break it all down over a week, from 9 am to 4 pm (day camp), or 9 am to 6 pm (overnight camp). That's 6 to 8 hours of basketball each day, 30 to 40 hours of basketball related skills, drills, games and exercises, supervised and executed by ex-professional players with a combined 45 years in the game. We've played on 4 different continents, in a host of countries, and in leagues at the highest levels, in each country we've played in. What do you want to learn about yourself What drives you to compete? Whatever your motivations may be, if you were unsure about your future, when you leave USA Basketball Camp, you'll know what you REALLY want from the game of basketball, sports education alternatives, and life in general! "LET'S GO BABY!"..."Make your next move, the best move." https://lnkd.in/eW-EpJb6 #usabasketballcamp #smbgeducation #smbgbasketball #smbgteam #youthbasketball #frenchbasketball #frenchsports

?? **My Life Between the Pipes: A Goalkeeper's Journey** ?? As the puck glides across the ice, my heart races. I'm not just a player; I'm a **guardian**, a **sentinel**—the last line of defense. Being a goalkeeper isn't just about stopping shots; it's about living on the edge, where every second counts. **Attention Span**: Imagine standing there, eyes locked on the puck, your mind a laser beam. You're not just tracking the game; you're predicting it. The adrenaline surges as that slapshot comes hurtling toward you. Your instincts kick in, and you dive, glove outstretched, denying the opponent their glory. It's a chess match—a mental dance between you and the shooter. **Stamina**: Hockey players rotate in and out, catching their breath during shifts. But not us goalies. We're like marathon runners sprinting a never-ending race. Our legs burn as we shuffle side to side, eyes scanning the chaos. The rink becomes our canvas, and we paint it with desperation and determination. We're the heartbeat of the team, the rhythm that never falters. **Cat-Like Reflexes**: Picture this: a breakaway. The crowd holds its breath. The opponent dekes left, then right. But you? You're already there, limbs coiled like a spring. You react, glove snapping shut, denying them with a wink. It's poetry—the ballet of desperation and defiance. And when you rise, knees protesting, you know you've just written another stanza in your goalie saga. **The Joy**: Yes, it's grueling. Yes, it's relentless. But it's also the most exhilarating position on the ice. When that final buzzer sounds, and your team celebrates, you're the unsung hero—the one who stood tall when the world blurred around you. The thrill of a diving save, the taste of victory—it's all worth it. So, young ones, if you've ever glanced at those oversized pads and thought, "Maybe I could be a keeper," don't hesitate. Lace up those skates, embrace the crease, and become part of our quirky, passionate fraternity. Because being a goalie isn't just about stopping pucks; it's about stopping time itself. ???? **#GoalieLife** ????
