Youth Sports at the Y

Building Champions on the Field, Court, and in Life!

At the Y, kids gain more than just athletic skills—they learn teamwork, resilience, and confidence. Our programs in Gaston County include leagues, summer camps, and tournaments for sports like soccer, flag football, basketball, gymnastics, and more. Dedicated coaches and instructors support each child's growth, helping them become skilled athletes and self-assured individuals.
