Sports
The Rochester Area
Family Y believes that youth sports programs encourage and promote
healthy and strong kids, families and communities by placing a
priority on family involvement, healthy competition rather than
rivalry, the value of participation over winning, team building
as well as individual development, a positive self-image and a
sense of fair play and mutual respect for others. Four core values
are incorporated into every sport---respect, responsiblity, caring,
honesty.
