Organized Sports Program |
 |
The Department sponsors league play in a variety of sports with the objective of providing recreational opportunities for youth and adults who are citizens of Anne Arundel County. The principals of participation, diversity, safety and fun guide the programs of the Department. While scores are reported and standings kept, the competitive aspects of these activities are secondary to these principles. | |

| Youth Sports |
Our youth sport programs are a mutual endeavor between the Department and Athletic Associations throughout the county. Children must be at least eight (8) years old in order to participate in the county's organized sports leagues. |

| How do I register my child to play organized sports? |
There are approximately over 100 Recreation Councils and Athletic Associations throughout Anne Arundel County, which organize teams to enter participants in the Department's organized sports leagues. In order to contact your community’s Recreation Councils or Athletic Association please visit the Resource Links section in this site. With the exception of a few sports, the Department does not register or assign individual players to teams. Established teams register with the Department at our organizational team meetings. |
