Y Sports help kids build character
Kids who play sports at the Y discover so much more than their athletic abilities. They build character, develop self-confidence and create healthy relationships. The Y’s revamped Sports program is designed to reflect the Y’s core values—caring, honesty, respect and responsibility—through positive competition.
