Stephen Curry - English
Stephen and Ayesha Curry aren’t just famous for their athletic prowess but also for their commitment to positively impacting their community.
Through their “Eat, Learn, and Play Foundation,” the couple has been offering much-needed resources and support to children, with their latest initiative focused on parents and children alike.
The Currys’ message revolves around their strong belief in kids playing multiple sports before specializing. This advice stems from their own experiences, as Stephen himself dabbled in a variety of sports like baseball, football, and soccer before excelling in basketball.
In an insightful conversation during a recent visit to East Oakland Pride Elementary, Curry emphasized the importance of letting children explore various activities.
“I’m biased just because that was my experience growing up. Diversification of developing those skill sets; and you meet new people, who are in these different environments as well,”said Steph.
“So, it’s just a matter for me I know burnout’s a real thing as well. I just like to keep it as fun as possible for as long as you can. Until it becomes, the kid is being able to decide, hey this is something I want to do”.
The benefits of playing multiple sports
Curry’s approach aligns with advice from health experts. Renowned organizations like the American Academy of Pediatrics and the International Olympic Committee encourage children to engage in various sports.
The reasoning is clear: diverse sports experiences help young athletes build a broad skill set and reduce the risk of burnout or injury, ultimately leading to more consistent performance in their chosen sport later in life.
Ayesha Curry also shared her perspective, emphasizing the importance of listening to children’s preferences when it comes to extracurricular activities.
She revealed how she had to step back from pushing her daughters into certain sports, like equestrian, when they showed little interest. After making that change, her daughter Riley thrived in volleyball, even leading her team to a championship title.
Their advice has the potential to positively influence over 84 million families across the United States. This massive number reflects the total families in the U.S., as per the 2023 census data.
With their foundation’s efforts and their guidance, the Currys are helping shape a generation of children who can enjoy sports in a balanced, fulfilling way.

No edge rushers for Lions on NFL Draft Day 2 as Brad Holmes sticks to his plan
ALLEN PARK, Mich. — Brad Holmes and the Detroit Lions war room were spotted wearing hoodies that read “HWS” — height, weight, speed — crossed out. The Lions typically coordinate their apparel during draft weekend. They’ve worn “positional villain” hoodies. They’ve collectively worn Dan Campbell jerseys, perhaps an ode to drafting Dan Campbell guys. So when Holmes emerged Friday at the end of night two, he explained the latest draft-related message.Advertisement“Height, weight, speed — it is the opposite of film evaluation, and we’re all about film evaluation,” Holmes said. “That’s the hard part of scouting. Height, weight, speed is easy. Stats are easy. A position listed is easy. But film evaluation is hard to figure out.”The Lions believe in film. They believe it doesn’t lie. The film told them that Georgia guard Tate Ratledge and Arkansas wide reciever Isaac TeSlaa […]
With Game 3 win, Devils show resolve that could benefit them long beyond the playoffs
NEWARK, N.J. — Friday night’s double-overtime victory doesn’t mean the New Jersey Devils will win this series. It doesn’t even mean they’ll reach Game 6. They are still the heavy underdogs and trailing 2-1 against a Carolina Hurricanes team that is healthier and has more recent playoff success. Not many people would bat an eye if Carolina won the next two games and sent the Devils home for the summer.AdvertisementBut that doesn’t change the importance of New Jersey’s Game 3 win. It’s the type of game that will stick with players on the roster, from overtime hero Simon Nemec — a healthy scratch earlier this series — to Jonas Siegenthaler, who played his first game since February, to young players like Paul Cotter and Cody Glass, who took their first-ever playoff overtime shifts.It’s the type of win that builds the […]

Hall four strokes off lead as Korda makes the cut at Chevron Championship
England's Georgia Hall is just four strokes off the lead while Nelly Korda moved inside the cut after two rounds of the Chevron Championship.Hall followed her opening 69 with a 72 to sit four strokes off the lead, but Charley Hull dropped to four-over par, one behind Scotland's Gemma Dryburgh. The cut is projected to come at two-over with nine players still to finish their second rounds after thick fog delayed the start of play.

Eagles see Andrew Mukuba as a physical, disciplined safety; stockpiled Day 3 picks with trades
PHILADELPHIA — Howie Roseman strode into the auditorium with a grin, with a quip prepared for the bleary-eyed reporters who stuck around the NovaCare Complex into the wee hours of the NFL Draft’s second night only for the Philadelphia Eagles general manager to trade out of the third round.“Rest up for next year, Friday night, because we are working next year on Friday night,” Roseman said.AdvertisementIndeed, Day 2 in 2026 is scheduled to be a marathon. The Eagles have a second round pick and three other selections in the third round. They’ve never had more than three in a given draft since Roseman was first named general manager in 2010. Next year promises to offer more flare than Friday night did. The Eagles spent the No. 64 pick on Texas safety Andrew Mukuba, then used Nos. 96 and 134 within a series […]
Broncos trio of Day 2 moves ‘paid off’ after landing offensive pieces RJ Harvey, Pat Bryant
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — In the thick of the NFL Draft chaos Friday night, as phones buzzed in the Denver Broncos’ war room, general manager George Paton ordered a pause on the movement for a brief, yet urgent news announcement.“I just want to congratulate Sean (Payton),” the GM said, “on his first trade back since 2006.”AdvertisementPaton last year said the Broncos were preparing a cake when the coach almost, but not quite, triggered a move back on Day 2 of the draft. On Friday, he joked that a trophy for Payton, whose draft DNA typically moves him up the board instead of down it, was on the way after the Broncos moved back twice in the second round — from No. 51 to 57; then from 57 to 60.“It certainly paid off,” Payton said.The Broncos viewed those moves as critical framework […]
