The YMCA youth sports programs are well under way with youth fall soccer. Special thanks to Christ Church Parish, Coldfront Taxidermy and W.E. Moye and Sons HVAC for sponsoring three of our teams this season.
Up next are girls volleyball, indoor soccer for both youth and adults, and Little Dribblers. We are going to offer our girls basketball program again this year. It will be for girls 6-15 years old. This program will focus on skill development as well as inter-squad play.
YMCA youth basketball will begin in January 2020 and run through February. It will feature age groups 6-8 year olds, 9-11 year olds and 12-15 year olds, with games against other YMCAs in the area. This co-ed basketball league focuses on the philosophy that “everyone plays, everyone wins.” Your child will learn how to work as a team in addition to the basic skills of basketball: shooting, passing, dribbling, and offensive and defensive techniques. Practices will be held at the Middlesex Family YMCA on Tuesday evenings, and games will be played primarily on Saturdays with an occasional weeknight game.
