Ready First is built. Now, with your help, every child can be Ready First.
R1 Ready First is live on the App Store and Google Play, and children are using it now. Our North Star is to give 15+ million children R1, so they can thrive in Mind, Body, and Energy. These are children who want sport and lack that support. To get there, we have to show exactly how well it works.
The data, the context, and what we’re measuring, in one watch.
Facilities are funded. Participation is funded. Readiness never has been. A gift to this study is what starts the proof. It puts R1 in a child’s hands for two years and seeds an IRB-approved validation study, led by a board-certified pediatric sports medicine physician, to find out whether readiness predicts who stays in sport, who leaves, and why.
$50 per child, two years of R1. A Founding Scholar cohort opens at 1,000 children ($50,000), then grows in steps of 500. Founding partners are named on the dataset and every publication.
Gifts are received by Players Philanthropy Fund, a 501(c)(3) public charity, and are tax-deductible to the fullest extent of U.S. law. Partners outside the United States should confirm treatment in their own jurisdiction.
