The Ft. Meade CYS Sports and Fitness program provides a wide range of opportunities for participation in team sports and outdoor activities. The program emphasizes fun, fundamentals, maximum participation and physical conditioning rather than winning or losing. In compliance with the Boys and Girls Club of America we inspire and enable all young people to realize their full potential as productive, responsible, and caring citizens.

Volunteer Coaches
Volunteer coaches are always needed. Volunteers are the backbone of all Youth Services sports programs. The sports fee for the first child will be waived if a parent is selected as a head coach. Anyone interested, please contact the Youth Sports Office for more information.
Anyone who is interested in coaching, please contact the CYSS Sports Office at 301-677-1179. All coaches are required to complete a background check and attend coaches’ certification training. Dates and times of certification will be provided if you are chosen to coach a team. Head Coaches who have a child participating will be given a coaches discount of the first child free and a 10% discount for each additional child. This discount does not apply to assistant coaches.
Volunteer hours will be kept for those seeking "job experience".
