Everybody Plays at the YMCA!

It’s that time of year again, where the kids are back in school during the day. They are confined to a classroom, forced to learn cool and exciting information and eat healthy school lunches. What is the solution when they come home with loads of bottled up energy? We place them in a sport! The Fowler Y is taking registrations for all of our fall season Youth Sports. This fall, we are offering Soccer, Flag Football, and Golf.

 

The Y nurtures the potential of children through the Youth Sports programming by strengthening character in our youth, engaging families, and building lasting relationships. Participants in our sports programs build skills, learn about teamwork, and focus on sportsmanship. Families are presented with second-to-none volunteer opportunities as coaches, team parents, and committee members.

Participants learn new skills, make new friends, develop essential character traits, and set individual and team goals. This improves self-confidence, promotes diversity, increases self-esteem, and improves physical condition. The positive time with family and friends in this environment strengthens our communities. Youth Sports puts emphasis on healthy relationships between adults and youth as well as family, with a goal to build social skills and sport skills with all participants for the future.
