Keep away cabin fever and get the kids moving this winter – sign up for a sport and stay active. The YMCA has 7 locations and plenty of activities to keep kids engaged.

Let your littles get out on the court and learn the basics of basketball. Kids as young as 4 can learn to dribble, shoot and work as a team. Coaches work with players to develop fundamental skills that are used organized games played in Inter-Y or community leagues. Youth basketball leagues are available for kids ages 4-5, 6-8 and 9-12. In addition to the sport itself, participants of The Y basketball league players receive a Pistons Basketball, reversible jersey, and one ticket to a game at Little Caesars Arena.

Get moving with gymnastics and dance. From parent/child gymnastic classes for kids as young as 3 to Ballet and Hip-Hop classes for kids ages 3 to 12. There’s no experience to get started and lots of fun to be had. At The Y, kids develop balance, coordination and confidence, along with safety skills.

When you sign up for youth sports at The YMCA you get more than weekly classes for your kids. The entire family can enjoy the fitness hubs, pools and gyms at ALL 7 locations. When mom and dad need a break to work out or meditate, kids can have safe, engaging fun in Child Watch for FREE! For as little as $3 a day, you can enjoy easy, healthy family fun all year long.
