Many parents have approached PFF with concerns about sports leagues scheduling practices or games on Sunday mornings. Most often we find that our childrens activities interfere with family commitments such as mealtime, family celebrations or vacations. Now there is pressure between playing sports or attending church. Many families split up on Sunday mornings. One parent may attend an early service with some of the children while the other parent heads to the game with another child, all depending on the week's sports schedule.

This sports vs church dilemma has finally caught the attention of some media. Wayne Perry of Associated Press reports on these issues. To read the story locally, see the Jan. 3 Star Tribune newspaper/ Faith & Values section.
