Science of Sport - Southeast

The Science of Sport is a 501(c)(3) that provides a mechanism for at-risk middle school kids to improve their academic performance. Our goal is to translate the passion of sport into an appreciation, understanding, and application of science and mathematics.

Through this we aim to empower students who are underperforming academically by focusing on their athletic strengths, capabilities, and interests. By demonstrating the natural connection between baseball, science, and mathematics, the students are encouraged to define and pursue better life choices, including the goal of attending college. This has the potential to improve academic achievement, provide a path to college, elevate socioeconomic status, and make our nation an even better place to live.

The Science of Sport program brings together students, their families, and local communities to encourage young people’s interest in the technical fields. Together, we prepare students for high academic performance, foster their lifelong love of math and science, and create new pathways for them to pursue academic and professional careers in the technical fields.
