Starting September 2023, Manhattan Parks and Recreation will be putting on a after-school program for middle school students at Anthony and Eisenhower school. This program will take place after school until 5:30 PM each weekday that school is in session.
About the Program
The program will have an activity-based approach that allows participants to experience the positive values of sports through a multitude of roles and experiences.
Students will be placed on mixed-ability teams at the beginning of the season and will remain on those teams throughout the season.
Each session will feature:
- Teaching the basics of the sport
- Team affiliation
- Practicing sport, management, analytical, and officiating skills
- A culminating event
- A festive, fun atmosphere
Program Timeline
Each semester will be divided into three 4-week units. The first Fall semester units will be:
