West Austin Youth Association

This nonprofit youth organization has been keeping Austin's kids fit and out of trouble since 1981, luring them out of the arcades and away from the television not with USMC-style threats of push-ups as punishment but with a dedication to "positive coaching" that eschews the win-at-all-costs mentality of so many competitive sports. People like that. At least, normal people. As in those who read the paper you hold in your hands. As in you.
