our mission
Here at Youth Summer Series we teach children the skills of making and keeping friends, while building their self-esteem, self confidence and resilience.
We make a difference!
The series experience is designed to give children the edge they need to succeed in every aspect of their development into young adults and beyond. We have built a program on a foundation of safe and fun play created to promote the kinds of growth that give every child the edge they need to reach their highest potential. What we start at Youth Summer Series stays with our children the rest of their journey to adulthood. And it makes a difference.
Play & Creative Skills
Our students will learn to perfect their skills in athletics and other pursuits – all designed to ensure they fully enjoy the experience of playing sports and participating in creative games. No matter what the level – everyone improves!
Character
Our program teaches students the importance of strong character, good values and an understanding that each individual plays an important role in the well-being of everyone around them.
Social Skills
The real key to success in life is happiness. The basis of happiness is in knowing how to build lasting and meaningful relationships. Teaching, practicing and perfecting the two essential skills of making and keeping friends is at the core of what we do.
Self-Esteem & Confidence
Self-esteem and confidence are an essential part of navigating the world and building strong, emotionally healthy adults. We create an emotionally safe, nurturing environment and train our staff and coaches on the importance of ensuring that students go home – at the end of every summer – feeling better about themselves and more confident.
Resilience
In life you don’t always win, make the critical shot or accomplish what you set out to achieve. We teach students to win with class, and if they must, lose with grace. We instill the competence of grit, teaching them to learn from their experiences and bounce back from disappointments.
