The cross country coach is the best!

The soccer program for young children is perfect. It gives them an opportunity to practice skills and teamwork, without an overwhelming time commitment.

Coaches, program design and the overall positive environment that allows my child to feel safe, supported and encouraged.

Great level of involvement for the younger kids(3/4). I think the amount of time required is very appropriate for kids that age.

Suvonne is the absolute best! She is very motivating and my kids love her ♥️

Flexibility and dedicated program directors who do what’s best for kids!

Suvonne is the best of the best!

We participated in the track/training program in January. My 12yo daughter enjoyed it but thought that the Y should split the ages for an older group (middle school and elementary school split) with a higher level of performance and seriousness to the training would have been more helpful as she was using it for spring school and travel sports prep. That may not be the intention of that program however so take those thoughts with a grain of salt. She enjoyed herself; learned some things; and was active at a time she would not have been don’t was still a win. It would be great to find a facility with lights would be my only other thoughts.

Coach Suvonne!

Affordability
Inclusive

Suvonne is the best. She is very organized and runs the program in a way that the kids respect her yet they still have a great time!

Everything was well organized and the staff was very friendly and kept in constant communication. I can’t say enough good things about Suvonne Dunning she went above and beyond. We will be back next year.

Our daughter participates in cross country with Suvonne. We've had a wonderful experience and greatly appreciate the welcoming atmosphere and team comradery. The kids really support and encourage each other.

The youth programming’s focus on building positive relationships is outstanding. My children not only gain an appreciation for overall fitness by participating, but they also develop a desire to support each other.

The location for soccer was extremely convenient, and I love the practice and game all in one day set up!
