SFX Youth Sports is a volunteer-led organization in Brooklyn providing sports programs focusing on skills and teamwork. Our programs teach fundamental skills while promoting teamwork, good sportsmanship and respect for all. Our coaches and leadership follow a set of basic principles, and expect parents and guardians to reinforce these principles on the field.
We have been serving the Brooklyn community for over 100 years, expanding our programs every year.
SFX does not provide player accident and injury insurance. This program is administered directly through LeagueApps and is not part of SFX Youth Sports. If you have any questions or issues with the insurance program please contact LeagueApps through the registration system.
