Testimonials about YMCA Youth Sports:

"I have been a YMCA Basketball Coach for the past 26 years... The YMCA has provided me the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of hundreds of young people on and off the court."

"I truly believe that having my boys participate in sports throughout the year keeps them on the right track. Unfortunately, my budget will only allow certain extracurricular activities but with the support of the YMCA’s financial assistance program, I am able to sign the boys up for the sports they love."

"I started coaching several years ago...I like working with young kids and trying to impart my enthusiasm, respect and love for the game. It is so rewarding to see the look on a kid’s face when they make their first basket!"
