Welcome to MPRB Youth Sports.
About Youth Leagues
The Youth Sports Department provides experiences to help kids develop new physical and social skills in a fun, participatory and safe environment guided by knowledgeable and supportive coaches. Youth Sports programs contribute to your child’s physical, social, emotional, cultural and educational growth and development. Sports leagues give your child an opportunity to participate without regard to physical condition, sex, race, creed, economic or social status. Your child’s dignity and self-worth is of utmost importance. NOTE: No person will be denied the right to participate if all MPRB requirements have been met.
