We offer something for everyone - whether you want to join volleyball in the gym, play squash with a friend, or go for a swim on your own, your YMCA is here for you.

Want a greater connection with your family or friends? The YMCA has a long history of providing organized or open recreation for individuals, families and teams.
Did you know that YMCAs are recognized for having invented sports such as volleyball, racquetball, basketball, softball (it got its name and rules at a Y), and professional football. Bring your family, or bring yourself - Try the Y today.

It's no surprise that tens of millions of people across Canada have learned to swim at the Y including generations of families. After all, the Y has been teaching and improving swimming lessons since the 1800s. For our smallest members, we offer exposure to a set of values that enhance YMCA core values, as well as introduce pre-schoolers to a wide-range of water activity in a safe, fun atmosphere. As children grow through YMCA swim programs, they learn the fundamentals of swim skills and water activity. The leadership skills they learn can prepare them for lifeguarding and Advance aquatics. We also offer adult lessons for first-time swimmers to those looking to upgrade their skills.
