The Skills Center is a sports based youth development organization. We promote sports intentionally infused with life skills and academics. We pursue a purposeful development of young minds from ages 3 to 18.
Academic Cafe
The Academic Café is a state of the art, collaborative learning environment where students in 1st – 12th grade can participate in educational programs that positively support academic success. The Café provides interaction-learning zones that encompass both collaborative group and independent work areas offered in person and virtual learning environment. The Café is offered in a comfortable and quiet learning setting.
In addition, the Café empowers parents with workshops and resources that support their child(ren) journey through primary and secondary school.
The Collab
The Collaborative is a collective impact model that creates equity in education, health, and workforce readiness for young people ages 11-24.
Using sports as a powerful learning tool, The Skills Center teaches youth how to transfer the skills learned naturally through sports and apply them to other environments in their lives such as school, work and community.
