Registration FAQ

Q: Who can play?
A: YMCA youth sports leagues are open to boys and girls of all skill levels. Participants do not need to have a YMCA membership to play YMCA sports. Ages vary by location due to field/court access.

Q: How do I register for YMCA youth sports?
A: You can register for YMCA youth sports in person at your local YMCA or online. To register online, you'll select the sport, location and session date you wish to register for and click the "More Info" button. You will need your YMCA account username and password. If you are unable to log in, please contact our Member Services team at your local YMCA, or by calling (757) 275-9450.

Q: Do you provide financial assistance?
A: We work every day to make sure that everyone has the opportunity to participate in YMCA programs, regardless of their financial situation. Financial assistance is available for YMCA sports programs. Learn more and download the financial assistance application.

Q: What is the Y's refund policy?
A: If the YMCA has to cancel a program, you will receive a full refund. If you have to cancel after signing up for a program, prior to the start date, the YMCA will provide you with a 100% credit (good for three months) to be applied toward another program. No refunds or credits can be given after the program begins. All credits are nontransferable. 

Q: How are players placed on teams?
A: Players are placed on teams based on their age, skill level and requests. The information you provide while registering plays a large role in how teams are drafted.
