PARTNER PROGRAMS
DIS is proud to work with several outside
programs. Project Adventure has an
international reputation for team-building.
Athletes are used to hours of practice
developing sport skills, but team chemistry
requires a special sort of coaching and is often
responsible for ultimate success. Regardless
of sport, Project Adventure will customize an
adventure team-building program to inspire a
team to reach its potential.
Essentially, teams establish communication
norms, while building unity. All players asked
to demonstrate leadership, with an emphasis
on breaking down any cliques that can be
roadblocks. Together, team members set and
achieve a common goal.
Danvers Indoor Sports also hosts Girls on the
Run, a non-profit organization committed to
teaching life skills that inspire and motivate,
encourage health and fitness, and build
confidence with an engaging, age-appropriate,
fun curriculum. Offered for girls in 3rd through
5th grade, the GOTR program is 10 weeks,
culminating in a celebratory 5K run.
Another GOTR program for 6th-8th graders,
"Heart and Sole," focuses on social,
psychological and physical competencies
to navigate life experiences with care and
compassion. The girls create positive
connections with peers and adults and make
meaningful contributions to the community.
