News: Get active and have fun – register now for upcoming youth and adult sports leagues and clinics

Whether you are a parent ready to introduce your child to a new sport or an adult hoping to add some fitness and fun to your schedule, the Town of Castle Rock Athletics division has a program for you.

Families can choose from a variety of youth sports leagues and clinics including soccer, cheer, mountain biking, baseball, softball, track, volleyball and more. Programs are available for ages 3 through 18 and are designed to introduce children to a sport and allow them to practice and showcase their skills in a fun, safe and well-supervised environment.

New options include a spring basketball league for kindergarten through second grades and high school inline hockey. More information about our programs and registration is available at CRgov.com/YouthSports. Register for inline hockey, fourth through eighth-grade baseball or machine pitch baseball by Jan. 31 to receive a $10 early-bird discount.

Research shows that when children play sports, they increase their chances to grow up healthy, feel good about themselves, build friendships, and develop skills like teamwork, kindness and respect, and are more likely to succeed in school and in their future careers.

The benefits of playing a sport don’t stop when you grow up. Adults can get active and have fun while participating in sports like arena flag football, badminton, soccer, fencing, corn hole, baseball, softball and volleyball. Get a team together and register for a women’s, men’s, coed, recreational or competitive league; or sign up as a free agent to find a team opening.
