Dover Foundation YMCA
Sports Department Purpose & Philosophy
YMCA philosophy for our Sports Programs are extremly unique. We will deliver quality programs for our members which promote a fun family environment based on these philosophies: Everyone plays, balanced teams, positive coaching, good sportsmanship and open registration to anyone where interest and enthusiasm exist.
Sports can be a valuable tool in the development of a child’s physical, mental and emotional well-being. Sports can provide the ability to develop new skills, learn how to work as a team, win with humility, lose with pride and make lasting friendships
Our goal is to give each child the opportunity to develop to his or her fullest potential mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually. Self-confidence, responsibility and leadership are also developed. Values such as caring, honesty, respect, responsibility and faith are nurtured.
We have room for everyone, even adults! We provide terrific programs for adults from drop-in sports to the competitive nature of our sports leagues.
