Recreational Sports Philosophy
Erie Parks & Recreation strives to provide a positive, safe, and fun environment to allow children of all skill levels the opportunity to play. We hope to create an environment that balances teamwork, commitment, hard work, sportsmanship and competition. We provide 2-3 contacts per week with enthusiastic parent volunteer coaches, and hope that at the conclusion of the season your child learned about the game, improved skills, and wants to play again.
Recreational Sports Age Classifications
For a majority of our leagues, we classify our league offerings by age. Unless otherwise noted in each program/league’s description, the age calculation date for all youth sports programs/leagues will be calculated by the first league contact day.
- The “U” before the age number stands for “under” (e.g., U9 stands for ages under 9).
- The “U” after the age number stands for “and under” (e.g., 9U stands for ages 9 and under).
Registrations
Registrations for all leagues will be accepted from when the league’s registration opens through the registration deadline or until each league reaches maximum capacity, whichever comes first. League practice days, times and locations are subject to change.

All teams are coached by parent volunteers. If you are interested in coaching, please contact volunteer@erieco.gov and we will respond within 5 business days.
