Youth sports are one of the fastest-growing recreation programs nationwide – and the same holds true for the City of Sparks. The Sparks Parks and Recreation Department has built a solid program through the years with a variety of leagues, clinics, and camps designed to promote good sportsmanship, teamwork, and skill development for children of all ages and abilities.
National Academy of Athletics
The National Academy of Athletics offers a variety of youth summer sports programs. Their youth sports programs offer kids a chance to have fun while learning the fundamentals of their chosen sport in a safe and fun environment. Full day and half day camps are offered this summer at Shadow Mountain Sports Complex.
