That the staff get to know your child and their strengths. I’m going to miss my daughter playing sports there! I can only hope she wants to work there too when she gets older!
I like the focus on recreation for kids who aren’t interested in club sports. I wish winter rec soccer had continued past age 11 for my older son.
I went to Buckner YMCA to swim. It was much nicer for the lap swimmers there compared to norton commons YMCA. There were actual lap swimmers and not kids and people just floating... blocking the lanes during lap swim. It is farther for me to drive, but well worth it. Recommend Buckner YMCA.
Great kids club, friendly staff, equipment, very clean, beautiful building.

Wonderful staff!
We enjoy the friendly atmosphere and the personal trainers are excellent. Everyone there is so helpful. Also, the facility it nice and clean. Your children's area is excellent & a wonderful asset to parents. We are so fortunate to have the YMCA in our area!
They focus more on character which is good for the littles when they start competing. I appreciate the opportunity to let my kids try out various sports knowing there will be an effort to build them up and let them learn without the pressure of not being good enough to play. It’s helped them have a much more positive experience and allowed them to decide what they enjoy. Also love the childcare, super helpful as well as the offering of group classes.

I enjoy the water aerobics classes, and it is great to have different teachers with their different styles to keep things fresh.
