LOUISIANA YOUTH COACHES ALLIANCE

Louisiana Youth Coaches Alliance is a non-profit community based organization formed to provide urban youth with positive alternatives to the streets and uniting volunteers with common causes. Louisiana Youth Coaches Alliance is focused on the developmental enrichment of all its members and programs. Louisiana Youth Coaches Alliance reviews, regulates, governs, and supervises all forms of youth athletics in the East Baton Rouge Parish communities. The organization, with community, church, and the Park & Recreation Commission for the East Baton Rouge Parish’s (BREC) support, is determined to create an understanding, develop respect, inspire leadership, foster teamwork, establish discipline, and nurture love amongst our youth & communities through athletics and educational programs.

Louisiana Youth Coaches Alliance’s mission is to utilize organized and structured athletics as a tool to enlighten and cultivate the development of well rounded youth through establishing a foundation of the following life skills:

• Responsibility; Goal Setting; Sportsmanship; Self Control; Smart Decisions; Teamwork; Leadership; Perseverance; Pride; Honor; Trust

Louisiana Youth Coaches Alliance will promote the building of this foundation throughout its programs and by its members.

Louisiana Youth Coaches Alliance is committed to the furthering of education of all its’ members in all aspects of athletics (coaching, officiating, rules, child development, first aid, team management, etc.).

Louisiana Youth Coaches Alliance has started their initiatives to improve the quality of life by partnering with BREC to enhance the quality of the Junior Tackle Football and Junior Summer Baseball programs offered to the East Baton Rouge Parish communities. The restructured programs formed from this partnership are called the Louisiana Youth Football League and Louisiana Youth Baseball League.
