I did attempt to learn the rules of these various sports by reading sports books which were written by and for coaches and sports savvy people.... I was not one of them! The books were too detailed and involved. I only wanted to know the parts of a game that were important to me and my children.

"What do I need to play this sport; how long is a game; where is he/she on the field if he/she is a forward or wing; and what are those referees signaling?" Also, I needed to know the "lingo" so I could converse with my child or other parents on the sidelines.

I did think (aloud) "With all the sports my kids play...there should be a MOM'S GUIDE TO SPORTS!" There it is, my Eureka moment!

With that in mind, I created the MOM'S GUIDE TO SPORTS pamphlets . These are four paneled, laminated publications that can be used as an aid to parents, kids, and anyone else interested in learning about a particular sport. Currently, there are 12 different pamphlet guides: baseball, basketball, field hockey, football, ice hockey, golf, men's lacrosse, women's lacrosse, soccer, softball, tennis, and volleyball. Each guide lays out the most important rules and regulations of the sport in question. Using fun graphics and "mom friendly" definitions, these guides are a great way to quickly learn about the sports your children love!
