WHO WE ARE
We are a proud leader of youth sports in our community. In the course of a year, we serve over 500 children. We look forward to serving you and your family. The YMCA strives to provide safe, affordable, convenient, and quality programs to meet your family’s wants and needs. Our Sports programs offer your child to participate in a non-competitive league setting. We have practices for each sport once per week with a game either played on Friday evening or Saturday morning.
OUR VISION
The YMCA Youth Sports vision is to encourage children to do their personal best in an environment geared towards developing confidence and respect for their coaches, families, peers, community, and the game they play. All of our Youth Sports Programs are non-competitive, so we can focus on the growth of the individual rather than winning and losing.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
Our program is open to all boys and girls; from Pre-K to 8th Grade. By choosing Y-sports kids will learn fundamentals, confidence, healthy competition and sportsmanship at their own pace. We don’t like to see kids “sitting on the bench” so you can be assured that all kids will get the same amount of playing time.
LOCATIONS
Taylor YMCA: We offer sports at the Village of Gilberts Towncenter Park, Gilberts Elementary School and the Taylor (Elgin) YMCA.
Campanelli YMCA: We offer sports at Campanelli (Schaumburg) YMCA, Frost Middle School & Einstein Elementary (Hanover Park)
