The YMCA believes that its sports programs provide an excellent means of developing a predisposition to fair play. As this virtue develops, it can influence behavior in everyday life. The YMCA also believes that its sports programs can help people to grow personally, clarify values, improve relationships, appreciate diversity, develop leadership skills and have fun.
The YMCA Youth Sports works with the Seven Pillars of sportsmanship:
- Everyone plays
- Safety first
- Fair play
- Positive competition
- Family Involvement
- Sports for all
- Sports for fun
The YMCA Youth Sports Program offer a variety of sports opportunities for children ages 3 through 6th grade. Our sports program has 4 different leagues:
- Tots League (ages 3 & 4)
- Rookies League (ages 5 & 6)
- 1st & 2nd Grade League (grades 1-2)
- 3rd - 4th Grade League (grades 3-4)
- 5th - 6th Grade League (grades 5-6)
*Please go by child's grade first and then age to determine league.
