INDIANAPOLIS — From pickleball to football, miniaturized sports and activities are back at The Children's Museum of Indianapolis for the season.
The Riley Children's Health Sports Legends Experience kicked off its seventh season on Saturday, March 16. Spanning over 7.5 acres, the outdoor space offers more than a dozen sports experiences for all ages through hands-on activities, teamwork and family bonding.
Enzley Mitchell, the director of the experience, says it does much more than just offer family activities, it helps instill a love of sport and lifelong lessons to children of all abilities.
“Through “my-sized” sports and inclusive, family fun, coaches at the Sports Legends Experience encourage a lifelong love of sport in children of all ages and abilities. It is a starting line where little legends-in-training can learn meaningful lessons, begin healthy habits and make lasting memories with their family and closest friends,” Enzley said.
