ACCESS
(All Children Can Experience Sports Successfully)
The
YMCA is offering an opportunity for every child to
be able to participate in sports! ACCESS is an inclusion
sports program designed so that all children can learn
to play various sports together. This unique opportunity
teaches the fundamental skills of a sport in a non-competitive
environment. Children are assisted by personal mentors
if needed. ACCESS teaches acceptance, teamwork, and
socialization all in a fun environment. This program
is held on Monday evenings at the Edwardsville YMCA
Meyer Center. Soccer will be the first sport we introduce
this Fall. Mondays, 6:00pm-7:00pm. Members $28;
Nonmembers $45.
