The Community Youth Center is committed to “Building Champions in Life.”  To honor those champions and their outstanding achievements, the CYC recognizes student athletes at various times during the year.  Athletes are recognized for their athletic ability, but more importantly for exemplifying core values such as discipline, dedication, desire, commitment, work ethic, respect, honor, sportsmanship and leadership.  These are just a few of the character traits of a true champion.

Accolades are given out monthly to a student athlete in each program called “Athlete of the Month.”  With this honor, their photo is placed on the CYC Wall of Fame and included in the monthly newsletter.  At the Annual CYC Awards Banquet held in January, each program recognizes an “Athlete of the Year.”  The evening culminates with the honor of naming the CYC “Athlete of the Year” and CYC “Member of the Year” – the highest honors of membership.

Athletic records are meant to be broken, but more importantly, kids are striving to reach their own personal milestones every time they walk into the CYC.  The CYC structure gives them the opportunity to strive to achieve their own personal goals and records.  With discipline, dedication and desire, they will be champions.  That fact is recognized everyday!
