Sports Leagues & Teams

In addition to the daily access to sports activities in the gym, on our playground and sports fields, and in the pool, we also offer several options for youth to participate in a more structured season-long sports league. There is an additional fee for participation on our Swim Team as well as in our Basketball and Baseball leagues.  Please also note that participation in any of our sports leagues requires an active membership at our Club which is current through the duration of the program.

Please read the Athletic Parent Expectations before attending your child’s games.

Baseball

The Club has a long history of running baseball leagues for the youth in our community. Dating back to the 1940s, youth have been learning the skills to play “America’s Pastime”. With leagues now available for boys and girls ages 4-18, we offer the opportunity for all youth to participate in our summer baseball programs.

A strong sense of good sportsmanship is important not just for our players, but also for our spectators.

2020 Baseball Camp

$40 Registration Fee

Starting July 6th!
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are unable to host our traditional RBI League this summer. Following the current CDC social distancing guidelines, we have developed a Baseball Camp for youth ages 8-18. Participants will be assigned to a pod of 13 players which they will stay with for the duration of the camp. Pods will be grouped by age and will play once a week. This camp will focus on teaching the age-appropriate fundamentals of baseball such as throwing, catching, fielding, and hitting. Pods will not play games against other pods, however, they will be able to scrimmage and play games among themselves. This is a great opportunity to keep your kids active and safe during this unprecedented time. Play Ball!

T-Ball

$40 Registration Fee
Designed to teach young children, ages 4-5, the basics of baseball, our T-Ball program welcomes interested kids to have fun on the field this summer. Supervised by Boys & Girls Club staff, games are held once a week for seven weeks. Players learn the skills including how to swing a bat and run the bases, as well as respect and how to be a good team player!

Jr. RBI, takes the rudimentary skills learned in T-Ball and builds on them each year as players advance toward our RBI league. Jr. RBI offers youth ages 6-12, the chance to learn skills as they move from hitting off a pitching machine (which always throws strikes) to playing with live pitchers. The primary goals of our Jr. RBI program are to teach baseball skills and rules, encourage sportsmanship, and provide a fun environment for beginner players.

Basketball

Basketball leagues at the Club keep boys and girls ages 6-18 active during the winter while providing them with the opportunity to work on skill development and teamwork. We also provide a teen summer basketball league for youth ages 13-18.

As with all our sports leagues, the emphasis in basketball is on building skills in a competitive, but friendly environment. For all of our players, the first skill they learn is good sportsmanship.  With caring volunteer coaches serving as positive adult role models for our participants, our players learn much more than just ball handling skills!
