YOUTH SPORTS & PLAY

The Y is the starting point for many youth to learn about becoming and staying active, and developing healthy habits they will carry with them throughout their lives. And the benefits are far greater than just physical health. Whether it’s gaining the confidence that comes from learning to swim or building the positive relationships that lead to good sportsmanship and teamwork, participating in sports at the Y is about building the whole child, from the inside out.

All of our youth sports and classes are held at the city community centers, gyms, and parks. Our five locations are: Downtown Anaheim Community Center, Downtown Anaheim Youth Center, Twila Reid Park, Stanton Central Park and West Anaheim Youth Center.

Limited Classes Available 

Safety is our top priority. Socially distanced, outdoor classes are offered in accordance with CDC and local health dept. guidelines.
