GREELEY Youth Sports Guide
GREELEY Youth Sports Guide th 4nd EDITION 2 For Kids of All Ages Copyright 2013 The Edge Sports Center, LLC. No part of this document may be copied in any form without written permission. Dear Greeley Community Member: The second edition of the Greeley Youth Sports Guide presents a comprehensive summary of the numerous team sports available to Greeley’s youth. This rich set of athletic opportunities for our future leaders is the result of a true partnership between the City of Greeley, local non-profit youth sports organizations, Weld County Government, the University of Northern Colorado, Weld County School District 6 and local private enterprise. No one organization, public or private, could possibly offer such a broad variety of programs as described. Here are some examples of existing partnerships that allow for these opportunities: . Over the past several years, the partnership between the City and Weld County School District 6 has grown significantly. The Greeley Recreation Department now organizes and delivers many middle school sports programs on behalf of Weld County School District 6 including: Tackle Football (grade 7), Volleyball (grades 6 & 7), Soccer (grades 6 - 8) and Basketball (grade 6 & 7). This arrangement avoids overlap and cuts expenses. . The City’s Recreation Department partners with the University of Northern Colorado every summer to bring the expertise of UNC’s coaches directly to Greeley athletes at low cost. UNC sports camps are promoted in the City’s Leisure Connection publications and residents can sign up using the City’s standard registration process. Last summer, nine UNC camps were offered this way: Football, Basketball, Volleyball, Baseball, Softball, Tennis, Wrestling, and Track and Field. . Joint use of sports facilities developed separately by The City of Greeley and Weld County School District 6 gives both groups of athletes access to capital-intensive facilities that otherwise might not be available. Examples include Weld County School District 6 HS Swimming, which takes place at the Greeley Recreation Center, and Weld County School District 6 HS Softball, which takes place at the City’s Youth Sports Complex. . There are also many partnerships between private enterprise in Greeley and the City’s Recreation Department. For example, Workout West implements the City’s youth tennis programs and the Greeley/ Loveland Swim Club plays a key role in implementing the City’s youth swimming and diving programs. My sincere thanks to the Youth Sports Guide’s editor Phil Ebersole for creating this document and filling it with information on virtually every youth team sport available in Greeley. This required a significant amount of time, and we all appreciate the effort required to make this community resource a reality. The programs described in this guide represent a very tangible example of what we like to say about our city: “Great. From the Ground Up!” Youth sports help our families, our children, and let’s not forget, our local economy, by providing local jobs and by attracting regional visitors. This is a great community asset that we plan not only to maintain, but to nurture and improve in the future! Sincerely Thomas E. Norton, Mayor Mayor’s Office - 1000 10th Street, Greeley, CO 80631 - (970) 350-9772 Fax (970) 350-9583 We promise to preserve and improve the quality of life for Greeley through timely, courteous and cost-effective service.

Baseball . . . . . . . . . . . . 4 Thank you for picking up the Second Issue of the Greeley Youth Sports Guide. This guide was developed as a community resource for the families of Greeley. Information is included on the approximately 22 youth team sports available in the greater Greeley area, regardless of whether the sport is offered by a government entity, non-profit organization, or private enterprise. Basketball . . . . . . . . . . 6 We hope to give you a ‘jump start’ by answering the following questions: • • • • • • • What team sports are available for my child’s age? During what seasons does the sport take place? What skill and commitment levels are required? Whom do I contact to get my child involved? What are the typical registration periods? Where can I get sports-specific instruction for my child? How about practice facilities? Our sincere thanks to the major organizations listed in this guide for their assistance in assembling the information on each sport available. Without their help, we could not have produced this guide. We strive to be as accurate as possible when we put the Youth Sports Guide together. However, the programs offered – as well as the registration dates and contact points – are always undergoing some degree of change. Please check with the organizations listed at the end of each section to make sure you have the most current details.

BASEBALL COMPETITIVE (Travel) & High SChool The Greeley-Evans Youth League (GEYL) hosts Competitive/Travel Baseball teams for ages 9-14 as of 4/30 of the season year.

The purpose of the classes is to develop the skills required to play hockey successfully. Skaters can progress through 5 Cub Hockey levels from beginning to advanced. The program is meant to parallel the Youth Recreational Hockey Program and Competitive/Travel programs described below; skaters are encouraged to complete the Cub Hockey program sequence while also playing in leagues. The City organizes Co-Ed Recreational Hockey Leagues year-round. There are two age divisions: ages 4 - 8 (mini-Mite and Mite) and ages 9 - 13 (Squirt and Pee-Wee). The Greeley Youth Hockey Association (GYHA) offers two levels of Competitive/ Travel Ice Hockey for boys and girls ages 9-18. Age divisions are 9-10 (Squirts), 11-12 (Pee-Wee), 13-14 (Bantam) and 15-18 (Midget). The first step in the process is an evaluation period in mid-September during which the players are observed. Entry level players are formed into teams of roughly equal strength and play in the Denver North Hockey League (DNHL). Advanced skaters are formed into teams that play in the more competitive Continental Divide Youth Hockey League (CDYHL), a league which requires more travel. The Mountain States Renegades Hockey Club (MSRHC) forms Competitive/Travel Ice Hockey teams for ages 418. Teams play in the Colorado Competitive Youth Hockey League (CCYHL). Age division names are the same as above with the exception that there are two high school age divisions: ages 15/16 (Midget Minors) and 17/18 (Midget Majors). Currently, there are no girls-only hockey leagues in Greeley. Interested players can contact the Northern Colorado Youth Hockey Association (NCYH) based in Fort Collins to join one of their teams. Depending on the level of interest, NCYH forms one or more girls hockey teams in age divisions U12, U14, U19 (Recreational) and U19 (Competitive). These teams play against other girls’ teams in the Mountain States Girls Hockey League (MSGHL). The High Plains Hockey League (HPHL) operates a high school hockey league for boys and girls along the Front Range. Unofficial teams from various high schools participates in this early spring league. Last year, the Greeley Freeze Team played in the league. Contact points for each high school vary from year to year. Check the HPHL website to get the current contact information for your school. € CITY CO-ED LEAGUES Ages 4-13 ∆ Registration w/ GYHA € € € CITY CO-ED LEAGUES CITY CO-ED LEAGUES Ages 4-13 Ages 4-13 fi ‡ CITY CITY CUB Hockey Prg Ages 3 & up € Registration w/ City CITY CO-ED LEAGUES Ages 4-13 CITY CO-ED LEAGUES CITY Ages 4-13 DNHL LEAGUES Ages 9-18 Entry-Level Players CDYHL LEAGUES Ages 9-18 Advanced Players GYHA Player Evaluation _______________________ Registration w/ NCYH _______________________ Registration w/ MSRHA Pre-s ∆ Travel: All Front Range DNHL Teams Also mountains CDYHL Teams Also mountains Girl’s Teams Also out of state CCYHL Teams Also out of state € (Travel) Team Formation: CCYHL Tryouts, cuts Others No cuts € Hockey Prg Ages 3 & up € ICE HOCKEY COMPETITIVE € CITY CUB Hockey Prg Ages 3 & up € CoEd CITY CUB CITY CUB Hockey Prg Ages 3 & up € Team Formation: No cut Travel: Local CITY CUB Hockey Prg Ages 3 & up € ICE HOCKEY RECREATIONAL Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Jan Feb Mar Apr May CUB Tryouts w/ MSRHA MOUNTAIN STATES GIRLS HOCKEY Leagues U12, U14, U19 CCYHL LEAGUES Pre-season MITES Ages 4-8 CCYHL LEAGUES ____ X Ages 9-18 Registration w/ unofficial team of each HS Playoffs Pre-s HPHL LEAGUES High School * ____ = Registration Period. ____ X = Registration Period w/ hard deadline. _ _ = Late Registration Period: space available/limited options. = Tryout day(s): pre-registration is generally required. ∆ Copyright 2013 The Edge Sports Center, LLC.
