Sports play a very essential part in developing the body and mind of a child. Sports, whether team-based or individual, are a great activity for children that provide a variety of benefits other than physical activity. 
As a mom of a very active kid, I see to it that my daughter will not stay home and play games and watch youtube on her cellphone, especially this summer. Children today are faced with numerous barriers that hinder them from engaging into sports such as digital distractions, lack of safe play places, and fear of trying.
Thankfully, we were invited at the MILO Summer Sports event last May 3 at The City Club, Alphaland Makati Place. Our kids were able to try some of the sports being offered at the MILO Summer Sports Clinics. 
When I told Rylee about this event, she was really excited.

MILO’s annual summer program highlighting sports as a means not only to get kids active, but also to teach valuable life lessons one can learn outside the classroom.

As part of the longstanding “Get Your Child into Sports” advocacy, the MILO Summer Sports Clinics aims to reinforce the importance of sports in a child’s holistic development.

Arnis, Ultimate Frisbee, and Wushu are this year’s newest additions to the program’s sports offerings. Apart from those sports, the MILO Summer Sports Clinics will continue to provide training to different sports disciplines, namely Badminton, Basketball, Chess, Fencing, Football, Futsal, Golf, Gymnastics, Karatedo, Lawn Tennis, Parkour, Swimming, Table Tennis, Taekwondo, Touch Rugby, and Volleyball.

SPORTS AS A GREAT TEACHER
MILO Sports Executives Lester P. Castillo and Luigi Pumaren reinforce the value of sports in a child’s holistic growth.
They welcomed parents and kids to a fun and energy-filled day headlined by a sampler of five sports—Basketball, Taekwondo, Gymnastics, Parkour, and Ultimate Frisbee.


After the short program, kids were group by four or five and tried the different Summer sports that Milo clinic offers.

Dito pinaka excited si Rylee, in fact gusto pa niyang umulit. Ang cute din ng sports na ito, parang naglalaro lang hehe, kaya siguro nagustuhan ni Rylee eh 🙂

Good job Rylee. You did it!

She was so happy and in fact told me that her overall favorite sports are parkour and of course, frisbee.

Thank you so much Milo for letting Rylee experienced this Summer Sports Clinic.
