Davis-Monthan YP has sports, instructional classes, and programs to offer for ages 3-18. Our Open Recreation Program for ages 9-18 is affiliated with the Boys and Girls Club of America, 4-H, and National Alliance for Youth Sports, so the sky is the limit on what we offer.

The Pre-Teen & Teen Center is an open recreation program for 9-18 year olds and offers a variety of club programming based on the Boys and Girls Club of America and 4H Curriculum. Our facility offers a safe place for pre-teens and teens to do their homework, study, and hang with friends!
We also provide an amazing School Age Program. School Age Care provides before and after school care for children who are currently enrolled in school, ages 5-12 years old. The program offers a wide range of growth and developmental activities to children that complement, rather than duplicate, the school day. You must be enrolled in this program to participate.
Drop-in care is offered on a space-available basis.
