Kids with learning disabilities, which can include dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, and language disabilities, may struggle in school, but find success in the world of sports. The playing field offers them a chance to equal or best their peers, strengthening self-esteem (which can take a hit in the classroom) and teaching teamwork and social skills as well.

Sports also offers kids the chance to learn skills—such as problem-solving, sequencing, and focus—in a new way, which can in turn help them with their academic work.

It reduces stress and helps redirect energy positively; this can help improve behavior in the classroom.
