CYA PHILOSOPHY
The primary objective of our sports programs is to promote and teach good sportsmanship, respect for authority, and loyalty to a team, and a heightened sense of self-worth. While teaching the proper fundamentals of each sport is very important, we recognize that for most of our children, playing sports is a recreational pursuit. We strive to accommodate all children, not just children who have attained or seek to attain the highest level of skill in a sport.
VOLUNTEERS
As is true in any non-profit sports program, the league needs volunteers. Without parent involvement the league would not exist. We need help!!!! Coaches, assistant coaches, coordinators for each league, fund raising, field maintenance, equipment management, board administration, the list goes on and on.
CYA SOFTBALL HOUSE PROGRAM
CYA House Softball Leagues operate in the Spring (April – June) and Fall (September – November). The teams compete internally against one another and against other leagues within the area. The goal of the CYA House program is to offer the opportunity for all girls to compete on a team sport. As noted above, good sportsmanship, respect, and teamwork are emphasized. In house league play, all girls participate during the game, no matter what their skill level.
The house programs are divided into 4 leagues:
8U (For girls 8 years or younger)
10U (For girls 10 years or younger)
12U (For girls 12 years or younger)
Seniors or 18U (For girls 18 years or younger)
For all programs, eligibility is based on the player’s age on January 1st of the current year.
