Youth Sports League Philosophy
South Portland Parks & Recreation is committed to providing a high quality youth sports experience for our participants, parents, coaches, and spectators. All of our youth sports leagues are driven by the same core philosophy, to introduce and develop the skills needed for lifelong enjoyment of sports in a setting that is inclusive, engaging, and centered on promoting sportsmanship and having FUN! We feel strongly that all players should have the chance to participate, and that player development, not winning, should be the ultimate goal.
Coaches Needed!
All coaches must complete a volunteer coaches application and are subject to a criminal background check. Please contact Esther Palmieri at epalmieri@southportland.org if interested.
