Sports, Fitness & Recreation
The foundation of Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Santa Rosa athletic programs is to teach kids the fundamental skills of the game in a positive environment where everybody gets an equal opportunity to play. In a sense, the gym and fields are an extension of the Club where the environment is geared toward positive role modeling, building a sense of team, developing character and sportsmanship. More than 300 kids participated in Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Santa Rosa athletic programs during the season. Sports offered by Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Santa Rosa include Co-ed Basketball Leagues (6-8 years & 9-12 years) and the T-ball League (4-7 year-old league).
The goal as we move into the school year is to offer more sports camps for kids with soccer (indoor or outdoor), volleyball and dodge ball in the discussion. The Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Santa Rosa is also going to fine tune and improve its co-ed basketball program. A possibility is to add an additional league with expanded age range.
PHILOSOPHY: Our program’s philosophy is that our staff and coaches are here to provide an educational and fun filled experience for our youth through the world of basketball and T-Ball. We use the games of basketball and T-Ball and their disciplines to teach the players the fundamentals and rules of the games, while providing an appropriate environment to learn and have fun. We will provide an intense learning environment designed to improve the skills necessary to become a better all around student athlete.
