Our Philosophy
Youth Sports should not be expensive. We are creating high quality opportunities for all of our students to participate at low cost to our families and for spectators. No large registration fees or $20 tournament tickets. We will not allow high prices to keep our students from exploring the positive outcomes of youth sports participation.
Youth Sports should not involve constant travel. Why drive hours away every week? Stay home with family. Everything you need, and more, is available in Canton. Our leagues will be competitive and well run. The best will want to come here to play.
Youth Sports should not be forcing your children to “specialize” with year round time commitments, or to stop an activity they enjoy because of a lack of training opportunities. We are creating high quality opportunities for all of our students to participate and enjoy as many different sports as they care to. We schedule and plan our leagues so that all interested athletes can participate in multiple sports.
