Youth Sports

YMCA fall and spring soccer programs provide age-specific, progressive levels where every child plays in a safe and fun environment. Kids learn teamwork, fair play, and improve their soccer skills while building confidence and making friends. Parents are encouraged to volunteer as coaches and helpers.

YMCA basketball is perfect for newcomers and return players. Kids learn ball control, shooting techniques, and game rules, with a focus on teamwork and sportsmanship. Our supportive environment helps players of all levels build skills and confidence. Parents can volunteer as coaches.

Youth T-Ball at the YMCA introduces the basics of baseball in a fun, non-competitive setting. Kids practice catching, throwing, and hitting off a tee while making friends and learning sportsmanship. It’s all about fun and building confidence on the field.

Our Jiu-Jitsu program offers kids ages 7-12 a chance to learn self-defense, build confidence, and get fit. With expert coaching, kids develop discipline and physical skills in a fun, supportive environment. First class is free—come give it a try!

The LY Swim Team offers competitive swimming for all levels. Swimmers improve their technique, endurance, and teamwork while competing in local and national meets. Coaches focus on personal growth, sportsmanship, and building lasting friendships.
