Spring Sports 2026

At the Idaho Falls Family YMCA our sports programs are designed to build more than just athletic skills – We focus on teamwork, confidence, and character development in a fun and supportive environment. Our leagues rely on caring volunteer coaches who help guide and encourage each player, making a lasting impact both on and off the field. As a parent, you’ll see your child grow through positive play, and you’re always welcome to get involved as a coach or helper – no experience needed, just a willingness to support kids and be part of the Y community! 

At the Idaho Falls YMCA we use PlayerSpace for game schedules and team rosters! Please make sure you have the app downloaded prior to the beginning of the season!
