Fall Flag Football season is September 9th - October 14th, 2017!

BE GOAL ORIENTED! YMCA flag football is a recreational program designed for youngsters new to the sport of football as well as those not quite ready for tackle football.

FOCUS: YMCA utilizes volunteer coaches to focus on participation and fun! The Y flag football program is geared toward youth who want to learn how to play the sport, brush up on the rules, tactics, and skills, improve their game and most importantly – HAVE FUN! 

Participants will learn the basics of offense and defense. They will learn and practice passing, running, catching and flag pulling. Your child will play many positions and learn the responsibilities of each of these skills. Our flag football is designed to help kids learn the rules and fundamentals of the game. Sportsmanship, teamwork and having fun are the emphasis. Teams practice and play one time each week. Our flag football league is a Coed league for  Ages 4-12. Our rules ensure that all players get a chance to experience the full game, and not just from the perspective of one position all season. Our flag football program is more focused on the rules, strategies and traditions of football, with the safety of every child as a main priority.

The YMCA Youth Sports Program helps kids become not only better players, but better people as well. It’s a progressive program, with multiple age-specific levels. Every child gets to play in safe, exciting and fun enviornment. We encourage fair play, positive competition, and family involvement.

Got game? Hit the courts with the folks who invented the game - the Y!

Originally called mintonette, volleyball was created by the YMCA. An experimental game, mintonette combined a variation of the badminton net with elements of basketball, the German game of fistball and handball.

The first volleyball game was played at Springfield College in 1896. The philosophy of YMCA youth sports programs is to use sports as a tool to develop each participant physically, mentally and spiritually.

Emphasis is on teaching the values of good sportsmanship, teamwork, goal setting and skill development in a fun, esteem-promoting atmosphere. Children will have the opportunity to learn the basic volleyball fundamentals such as underhand serving, setting, hitting, and digging in a non-competitive environment.

Our youth volleyball program is a co-ed league. Teens and adults can enjoy the joys of volleyball at the Y!
