Youth Sports

These are just games and these are just kids. Good sports are winners…before the game even begins!

 

Youth Sports Program

The Youth Sports Program is for Elementary and Middle School students attending Saginaw Public Schools. Teams are formed at the schools and coached by volunteers, usually parents. Games are played on Saturdays. Each sport has five weeks of regular season play. The Youth Sports Program is designed to present students with the opportunity to learn the fundamentals and rules of the sport, improve their skills and coordination, experience team play while encouraging school spirit and pride, and to master the basics of good sportsmanship. Each child will be asked to pay a $10 player fee.
