Sport Schedules

Let's play some sports!

Activities for every age!
Our Kroc programs are intended to introduce children to athletic competition in an environment that is safe, supportive, and more concerned with a positive experience than the final score. Our goal is to make sure what may be your child’s first experience in sports is one that they will want to have again. We partner with coaches and parents to make sure that this is the focus at all times. Beyond the game, our goal is to see our community’s children learn the other lessons that competition and commitment provide including, teamwork, respect, accountability, integrity, sportsmanship, and good citizenship.

Thank You Thunderbirds for Sponsoring the Kroc Center.
