When youth play sports with the Y they gain more than just exercise. They learn what it takes to be a leader in sports and in life. Understanding the fundamentals of the game and safe play are just the beginning. Our coaches help guide youth through learning the essentials of physical fitness, healthy development, and participation. We focus on improving their confidence and maintaining their determination. It doesn't matter who you are, or where you came from, at the Y, it's everyone’s game.

Lead the Team! Become a Volunteer Coach!
Y youth sports teams are coached by one or two YMCA volunteer coaches, many of whom are parents or community members. If you like to work with children and enjoy helping them learn and succeed, we need you! No formal coaching experience is necessary; all we ask is that you are committed to helping young people build positive self-images and develop a passion for an active lifestyle.
Registration and Refund Policy
We hope you will enjoy full participation in each Y program you choose. However, should you be unable to do so, please see our cancellation/refund policy located on the Join the Y page of our website.
