The YMCA Youth Sports philosophy is to allow kids to participate in a non-competitive program with an emphasis on fun, development of character, and fair play. We believe our youth sports programs help families and individuals grow personally, clarify values, improve relationships, appreciate diversity, develop leadership skills, and most of all, have fun!

Basketball and volleyball, both YMCA inventions, are popular youth programs, as are flag football, soccer, baseball, and cheer. YMCA coaches lead players through drills and games that build skills, develop coordination, and enhance a love of the game. We make sure everyone participates and we emphasize the development of character.

The YMCA offers both recreational and competitive leagues.

Lake Highlands YMCA plays in the same sports leagues with White Rock YMCA.
