Sports & Recreation
Our programs in Sports & Recreation...
are designed to help keep our members active while promoting positive use of leisure time, developing their athleticism, teaching them healthy coping skills, and strengthening their social skills through their participation in team-oriented activities.
In addition to our standard after-school programs, we offer club & travel sports leagues including basketball,
floor hockey,
swim,
and
dance.
Team sports help our members develop a sense of belonging and commitment to others. They also teach our members how to set goals and work together to achieve goals.
Nationally, less than one-quarter (24%) of children 6 to 17 years of age participate in the recommended 60 minutes of physical activity every day.
More than half of our Club members
report participating in at least 60 minutes of physical activity every day.
We believe that swimming is an essential...
life skill and that all youth should have access to affordable swim lessons to ensure that they are safe in and around water. As such, we provide swim lessons for individuals aged 6 months and above to impart the fundamentals of water safety.
Our Aquatics professionals are dedicated to safety in and around water for every member, participant, and staff. All Aquatics staff are trained in lifeguarding, CPR/AED, First Aid & Emergency Oxygen. We have monthly in-service trainings that focus on various areas of risk prevention and skill practice.
