CARD YOUTH SPORTS MISSION: Every participant, player, parent, coach, official and staff is considered to be part of the CARD Youth Sports team. The golden rule of the Youth Sports team is to remember that we are here for the kids (they are kids first and players second!).

We strive to achieve the below goals with every single child in our Youth Sports program and leagues:
Promote respect, citizenship and sportsmanship

Give all players the benefits and life skills that Youth Sports provides.
Give all players a LOVE OF THE GAME that will spark an interest that will last a lifetime.
