El Paso's youth are in for a season of active entertainment as the El Paso Parks and Recreation department opens registration for its Winter Mini & Recreational Sports Season. The call is out for young athletes, ages 4 to 12, to sign up for a roster of sports, including soccer, basketball, and volleyball. According to a social media post by El Paso Parks and Recreation, the official kickoff is a week away, starting January 12.
Parents looking to enroll their children can visit any local recreation center for more information or to complete the registration process. The cost? Forty dollars per player, plus a mandatory five-dollar parent class fee. All fees aside, opportunities for youth scholarships are available, offering an avenue for participation regardless of one's financial situation. Interested families are encouraged to apply for these scholarships directly at any of the recreation centers.
El Paso Parks and Recreation's commitment to accessible community engagement shines through in this initiative. The department aims to promote not just physical activity, but also teamwork, sportsmanship, and a sense of community among the youth. The underlying ethos is clear: bring the kids together, hone their skills on the field or court, and provide a constructive outlet for winter's boundless energy.
