Lifestyles offers a special program for the young athletes on Staten Island in conjunction with Special olympics. Under the direction of Joanne Certo, our Pee Wee Program is geared for athletes aged six through eight years old. On Saturday morning, coaches teach the Pee Wee Athletes skills in sports, such as socer and swimming, as well as sportsmanship skills including "taking turns" and teamwork. The Pee Wee format is a great way for young athletes on Staten Island toe exercise, learn and socialize in an environment outside of school. It also provides a great way for young athletes to transition into Special Olympics.
