Welcome to NAU's
National Youth Sports Program


The National Youth Sports Program is a five-week summer program that combines sports instruction with the teaching of vital life skills such as health, nutrition, drug and alcohol prevention, conflict resolution, career education, and community service.  Expert instruction is provided to participants before engaging in the numerous sports activities, including swimming, volleyball, track and field, tennis, speedball, softball, and basketball.  Participants are expected to learn sportsmanship and how to work with one another within the framework of the summer sports camp.

Who?  Children between the ages of 10-16 (must be 10 by August 31, 2005).  There are no exceptions to the age policy.

Cost?  Free!  A current physical exam must be conducted by March 30 or less (using the NYSP physical form).  This physical and a signed application are required to participate.  Note that NYSP will provide a physical day in May - those covered by AHCCS or Indian Health Services must see their provider for their physical.
