Spring sports season registration is underway for Port Washington Youth Activities (PYA).
This spring PYA is once again offering a full slate of sports for boys and girls. The offerings include baseball, softball, tennis, developmental lacrosse, and roller hockey.
The PYA baseball, softball, and lacrosse fields located at the Lions Field complex at the end of Glen Lane in Port Washington feature one of the finest natural grass outdoor playing facilities in Nassau County, a PYA spokesman said.
The roller hockey program takes place at the Manorhaven Park roller hockey rink. PYA tennis is run indoors at the Port Washington Tennis Academy on Harbor Road.
PYA operates the only Little League sanctioned baseball and softball programs in town. PYA abides by Little League policies including background checks for its volunteers. The organization also has a Little League-approved safety plan in place for its facilities, as PYA feels that parents should accept only the best and safest program for their children, a spokesman said.
Further information, applications, and on-line registration with credit card payment can be found at www.pyasports.org under the “Registrations” heading. Application forms are also available at Arena Sports Center, 52 Main Street; and Gail’s Shoes, 9 Main Street.
For additional information call PYA at 516-944-7921. Please be aware that registrations for certain sports are subject to deadlines so PYA recommends a child is signed up for their spring sport(s) as soon as possible, a spokesman said.
PYA is a non-profit, 501(c) (3), Better Business Bureau accredited, charitable organization formed to promote the exemplary development of local youth through participation in sports. PYA teaches teamwork and individual responsibility in an atmosphere of respect and sportsmanship.
