YMCA Sports Pledge
"I pledge to play the game, the best that I can, to be a team player, to respect my opponents, rules and officials and to improve myself
in spirit, mind and body."
Sports participation keeps kids physically active and provides them with positive development opportunities. As they strive to achieve individual and team goals, Y participants learn fundamental skills and positive values.
Why choose YMCA Sports?
1) Everyone plays in every game.
2) Smiles, laughs and good feelings are important.
3) Teamwork and cooperation are keys to success.
4) Striving to win is an essential part of all sports, but winning is only one goal of many.
5) We play fair, learning to respect our teammates, our opponents, the officials and ourselves.
