Member Testimonials

Clean and staff are wonderful and friendly.

Convenience and ability for kids to play with their neighborhood friends. I love that it keeps the kids active and gives them something to look forward to on the weekends.

Organization!

We have two kids on swim team and one of them also participated in Winter and Spring Cheer. Coaches for all of the sports teams are great. They work well with young kids, help build positive interactions and experiences. I recommend them to everyone.

ORGANIZED .TEAM BUILDING!!

We love the youth soccer program! In addition to the fundamentals of the sport, students are taught to embody the trait of good sportsmanship. Our grandson has participated in the summer soccer clinic, fall soccer, indoor winter soccer, and spring soccer. Each experience was outstanding.

I really appreciate the focus on team, respect, good sportsmanship and learning! From a coach's perspective, the program provided a lot of support with schedules, logistics and even practice guidelines. Much appreciated!

Great morals, teamwork, and information sharing. Great organization and software too.

Staff, friendly people, families are kind

I like the focus on helping the children learn how to play the sport and improve their skills, all while having fun and learning how to be a teammate.

Really positive environment and energy. My daughter has a wonderful experience.

great programs and coaches. only issue with the indoor was hard to hear the coaches with the echoing.

Communication and coach

Impressed with our coaches and the efficiency of games.

My kids have been on the swim team for years and we love the coaches. The team atmosphere is overall very positive and encouraging. My youngest tried winter cheer and loved it too. The coaching staff is great all around and it is nice to have positivity reinforced in all different sports.

It was a wonderful experience!!

I love the level of commitment and involvement in our community YMCA, everyone is active and love helping the youth, I highly recommend the programs at YMCA Shady Grove

Accessibility - kids of any ability can play. And it's great to see kids continue to participate even as they get into their teen years, especially those kids that love sports but aren't skilled enough for their school teams or for club/travel teams.

Very organized.

The emphasis on sportsmanship and the kind people who run the programs.

It’s been a good experience for our kids to take sports. Seen them improve in the skills.

They are inexpensive, short commitment. Perfect for kids who are learning and trying out different sports. I really wish cheerleading was offered on Saturdays in other seasons, not just winter basketball.

It’s a fantastic program that YMCA is running. Well executed and planned.

Thank you for your continued effort on this.
