SPECIALTY ENRICHMENT PROGRAMS

Our programs in Sports, Fitness & Recreation are designed to help keep our members active while promoting a positive use of leisure time, developing their athleticism, teaching them skills for stress management, instilling an appreciation for the environment, and strengthening their social skills through their participation in team-oriented activities.


We offer many organized Club & Travel Sports Leagues  including: basketball, floor hockey, soccer, and volleyball. Team sports help our members develop a sense of belonging and commitment to others. They also teach our members how to set goals and work together to achieve milestones through bench-marking and persistence. 


Our kids need these programs; 44% of Massachusetts public school students do not attend any physical education in an average school week. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), just 18 percent of Massachusetts schools offer daily gym classes, as compared to the national average of 30%. The CDC has also found that Massachusetts youth rank lower than the national average on measures of physical activity throughout the week (seven days of activity). 


Aquatics Programs

We believe that swimming is an essential life skill, and that all youth should have access to affordable swim lessons to ensure that they are safe in and around water. As such we offer swim lessons to anyone 6 months and older to teach the basics of water safety and survival. 

Swimming and other water-related recreational activities are especially popular among our members during the warmer summer months. Besides the benefits of cooling down and getting exercise, water play provides a rich sensory experience for children. Playing with water is important for the development of a child’s sensory integration. Exposing kids to a new environment like a pool or splash pad helps them learn to identify and process new stimuli and respond appropriately. 

Our Aquatics professionals are dedicated to safety in and around water for every member, participant, and staff. All Aquatics staff are trained in lifeguarding, CPR/AED, First Aid & Emergency Oxygen. We have monthly in-service trainings that focus on different areas of risk and prevention, and practicing skills and scenarios.

Taunton Dance Academy


In January 2022 we opened the Taunton Dance Academy at our Taunton Clubhouse. The Taunton Dance Academy is a vibrant creative space for dancers to express themselves, build confidence, and explore unique dance opportunities while building their technical and collaborative communication skills. Competitive and recreational teams enhance members' perseverance, commitment, and passion for the art. Dance is an exceptional way to express any and all emotions while expanding communicative and collaborative skills with peers.


Teen Fitness Centers 


In December 2018 we cut the ribbon on the Planet Fitness Judgement Free Teen Fitness Center at our Taunton Clubhouse. This state of the art fitness center and lounge offers members ages 13-18 a positive place to exercise in addition to a lounge area for working on homework and participating in small group programming. The space houses an array of exercise apparatuses including elliptical machines, stationary bikes, dumbbells & free-weights, medicine balls, and more. 


Our Brockton Clubhouse also offers a Teen Fitness Center for the benefit of our members. Located on the main floor of the Clubhouse adjacent to the gymnasium, the Teen Fitness Center offers a supportive, approachable space for teens to exercise.


Social Recreation

Social recreation encourages growth and development in youth and helps young people build and practice important life skills such as critical thinking and communication. Games help youth establish their integrity, build trust in their peers, and learn patience and cooperation all while having fun! Our Games Rooms offer a platform for group play and provide educational and engaging outlets for members of all ages and abilities.
