Year-round Programming

Welcome to the Mini U Multi-Sport program! This program aims to get kids active and more engaged in physical activity. Children will be instructed on the foundational skills related to the sport of the week before applying those new skills through some fun games and activities. Sports offered in the program will include basketball, volleyball, soccer, dance, badminton, and more!  

The program is open to children of all skill levels. This non-competitive program emphasizes providing an encouraging, safe, and fun environment for kids to try out different sports and get active. The skills and drills explored in this program will be at a beginner/base level and help lay the foundation for your child to explore these sports more independently. 

The recommended age for this program is 8-12 years old.
