YOUTH SPORTS

The YMCA provides offerings based on the needs of their members.

YOUTH BASKETBALL

Got Game?

Hit the hardwood with the folks who invented the game - the Y! The YMCA Youth Basketball program is open to kids starting at age 3, with programs & leagues running year-round. Every child will participate in every game and receive equal playing time, regardless of skill level.

No one tops our legacy.


Did you know that Basketball was invented by the Y in 1891 at the International YMCA Training School? Dr. James Naismith was given the challenge of creating a game that could be played indoors during the cold winter months. Hanging simple peach baskets and using a soccer ball, Naismith created the game of basketball and wrote the first 13 rules of the game.

More than just the game.
Sportsmanship and values are key components of this league. Every game starts with our YMCA Sports Pledge and ends with a handshake. 

Get involved, build community. 
Parents are encouraged to be more than mere spectators, by contributing their time as a volunteer in the program - as well as being their kid's greatest fan.
