NEW YORK -� August 18, 2004 �- Next Year, Bravo will trade in its pageant costumes for sweat suits, voice lessons for strength training and stage moms for soccer moms as it examines the highly competitive world of amateur sports. In line with Bravo's hit series "Showbiz Moms & Dads" and the new series "Showdog Moms & Dads," "Sports Kids Moms & Dads" will focus on children who are born competitors and the families that make incredible-and sometimes even shocking-sacrifices to support them.
