Sports & Recreation

About This Program

At Boys & Girls Clubs of Lorain County, sports and fitness has long been popular among our members. Whether through a team or individual sport, children and teens gain valuable life lessons, develop new interests and build self-confidence and character while participating in our recreation programs.
