Youth Recreation
Charlotte Public Schools is proud to introduce the new Youth Recreation Program. This collaborative program has been developed to enhance the quality of recreation programs for the youth of Charlotte. Charlotte Public Schools believes youth recreation contributes to the development and well-being of individual students in our community. The CPS Youth Recreation Program provides a quality, unified program for our students to stay active and learn lessons that team sports can instill in our young people.
Our program values are simple yet important to understand:
- Offer a wide range of recreation programs for the youth in our community at a reasonable cost
- Increase participation numbers for our youth, along with programming enhancements that expose our youth to basic fundamentals in a variety of sports
- Be a conduit to provide feedback regarding the involvement of varsity coaches and athletes in youth programs
- Enable a culture of active students and families by promoting healthy lifestyles
- And, provide youth recreation programs with high quality coaches, volunteers, and community involvement for our younger student athletes.
We look forward to providing an exceptional experience for your child. Please reach out to us to learn more about our youth recreation opportunities at 517.541.5163 or email sparksm@charlotte.org. Go Orioles!
