To develop the community of Englewood and its youth through high quality youth sports programs.
For many years, there were four primary organizations providing youth sports to Englewood youth; Englewood Parks and Recreation, Englewood Youth Sports Association (EYSA) and Englewood Wrestling. Due to budget cuts in 2013, Englewood Parks and Recreation decided it would no longer provide the sports it had offered to youth. In February 2014, a group of dedicated community members stepped forward to find a way to provide the sports that were previously offered through Parks and Recreation and to join forces with the other youth sports organizations in Englewood. Our vision was to create one home for all youth sports in Englewood. This was the beginning of Pirate Youth Sports.
