Pirate Youth Sports

For many years, there were four primary organizations providing youth sports to Englewood youth; Englewood Parks and Recreation, Englewood Youth Sports Association (EYSA) and Englewood Wrestling. Due to budget cuts in 2013, Englewood Parks and Recreation decided it would no longer provide the sports it had offered to youth. 

In February 2014, a group of dedicated community members stepped forward to find a way to provide the sports that were previously offered through Parks and Recreation and to join forces with the other youth sports organizations in Englewood. Our vision was to create one home for all youth sports in Englewood. 

 This was the beginning of Pirate Youth Sports. Pirate Youth Sports is a 501(c)3 that focuses on building community by providing youth sports primarily to Englewood youth. We are honored and proud to be your home for youth sports!

Mandatory Reporter TrainingAny concerns about a child or youth's safety should be reported to the Statewide Child Abuse and Neglect Hotline immediately (1-844-CO-4-KIDS). If you witness a child in a life-threatening situation, call 911 immediately. All PYS volunteers are mandatory reporters. Mandatory reporters are professionals or volunteers who work with children and youth. They are required by law to report suspicion of child abuse and neglect. As a mandatory reporter, it's not your job to determine whether abuse occurred, but rather to report any suspicions you may have. Mandatory reporters are part of the safety net that protects children and youth. You have the ability to provide lifesaving help to child victims in our community. Because you're a mandatory reporter, Colorado law requires you to make a report if you suspect child abuse or neglect. If you suspect abuse or neglect has occurred and don't make a report, you could: -Be charged with a crime -Have to pay a fine -Go to jailUse the link to complete the Mandatory Reporter Training Course.
