Play Days


Our Play-Days run when school doesn’t!  In our all-sport program your child will play a variety of games throughout the day or, if you prefer, you can put a group together and request a day of their favorite sport(s).  During the Winter Season, indoor activities and/or ice skating may be included in the schedule for an additional fee.


We can set up a program for your group any time school is out whether it’s a national holiday or simply a day off for teacher conferences etc.  Email us to request a day of activity for your child’s class!


Our coaches consist of current and former college and professional athletes who love their sports and love working with children of all ages and abilities.  We meet at various locations along the East and West sides of Central Park.  From there we walk (or skip or hop...) to nearby fields and courts for our activities.  During the Winter Season, indoor venues may be available.  For further description, see the Summer Program page.
