The covid-19 pandemic has had a catastrophic effect on youth sports. The United States has over 6.5 million coaches and 45 million athletes participating. The presence of youth sports in our society is necessary to help mold our youth into responsible young adults by teaching character, determination, and good work ethic. These life skills will help pave the way for our youth to become responsible adults.

The current CARES act passed to help protect businesses during this crisis will not significantly allow for our programs to be viable if we do not have more support. Most youth sports programs around the country have been mandated shut. We have closed our doors to athletes with little notice and we are still required to pay rent/mortgage, secure payroll, and maintain our bills without a means of generating revenues. The current bill passed by congress will help with finances for eight weeks, however, the road to recovery will be long and the resurgence of kids in youth sports is projected to be slow. Without a mandated request from our government, youth sports programs will either fail or succeed based on landlords and banks willing to help with funding to get through the slow rebuild. This is a travesty for our country and we are asking for a seat at the table when negotiating a new bill to support our youth. Please help us keep our coaches employed, doors open, and dreams alive.

Hello Decision Maker,
The Ministry of Youth Affairs & Sports was initially set up as the Department of Sports in 1982 at the time of organisation of the IX Asian Games in New Delhi. Itsname was changed to the Department of Youth Affairs & Sports during celebration of the International Youth Year, 1985. It became a Ministry on the 27th May, 2000. The specific subjects being dealt with by the Ministry are contained in the Order of the Government of India(Allocation of Business) Rules, 1961 The youth, i.e. those falling within the age group of 15-35 years constitutes nearly 40% of the total population of India. This group which is the most vibrant and dynamic segment of the country’s population constitutes potentially its most valuable human resource. To optimally tap their constructive and creative energies, the Ministry pursues the twin objectives of personality building and nation building, i.e. developing the personality of youth and involving them in various nation-building activities. As most of the issues concerning young people are the functions of other Ministries / Departments, like Education, Employment & Training, Health and Family Welfare, etc., the role of the Ministry of Youth Affairs & Sports is to act as a facilitator and catalytic agent. Sports promotion is primarily the responsibility of the various National Sports Federations, which are autonomous. The role of the Government is to create the infrastructure and promote capacity building for broad-basing sports as well as for achieving excellence in various competitive events at the national and international levels. The Ministry’s schemes are geared towards achieving these objectives.
Sincerely,
Louise Gonzales
