Youth Sports at Camp Ingersoll Begins This Week!
Fishing, T-Ball, Soccer, and More! We have youth sports for all ages and opportunities for families to connect outdoors! Join us THIS week!
At the Middlesex YMCA we create a positive atmosphere where your children can make friends, learn skills, and have fun all year round. Spring Session registration is open and classes begin THIS Saturday! All classes are taught by Certified Physical Educator and Camp Ingersoll's Assistant Director, Coach Taylor!
Spring Session: April 28th - June 16th, 2018
The Y is for youth development, social responsibility, and healthy living. These three concepts can be found in all of our programs. Sports are more than dribbling, kicking, or throwing. We teach social skills: how to make friends, share common interests, how to work together with a partner, and HAVE FUN! It shouldn't be a chore to work up a sweat in youth classes, and it isn't at the Y. Our activities are participation based, exciting, and all inclusive!
Our Spring Saturday Morning offerings with Coach Taylor and Coach Ray include:
- Family Fishing (5-15 yrs) 8:00 - 8:45 AM
