“MVP Health Care believes that all kids have the power to make healthy decisions...and that’s why we created MVP KidPower. We are dedicated to helping families get up, out and active...and live well!”


YMCA sports are based on the concept that fair play is the very essence of competition. Fair play implies respect for oneself, one's opponent, and others involved in conducting the competition. The YMCA believes that its sports programs can help people to grow personally, clarify values, improve relationships, appreciate diversity, develop leadership skills and have fun. The YMCA wants family involvement and to keep winning in perspective.

The YMCA of Greater Rochester strives to provide Youth Sports programs for the children in its community that not only teach children how to become better athletes, but also teaches them to become better people. Through the use of our developmentally appropriate, values-based curriculum we develop individual and team sports skills in an environment that emphasizes and rewards character as much as physical development. All of our Youth Sports programs are designed to meet the following goals:

Build Self-Esteem

Teach Social Skills

Teach Physical Skills

Develop Responsibility and Decision Making Skills

Enhance Leadership Skills

Build Relationships among Peers and Between Parent and Child
