​​​Backyard Sports began with a desire to meet an unmet need for our kids here in the Gorge.  We found that there were no opportunities for young kids here in the gorge to play sports and that most kids don't live in neighborhoods where they get to play with others on a regular basis.  We decided on an after-school program that allowed kids to run and play together while learning valuable skills about teamwork, winning and losing, and how to encourage and support  one another.

Backyard Sports had to be suspended due to the effects of Hurricane Helen.   Look for updates as the Lake Lure Area recovers. ​​
