Our Mission
The mission of Athletic Haven is to create opportunities for every child to play and compete in sports in an equitable, inclusive and supportive environment, regardless of financial or emotional means.
What We Do
Athletic Haven is a non-profit organization serving youth athletes in New York State’s Capital Region. We create opportunities for no-cost youth sports travel teams, open gyms, training clinics, camps and more to help keep kids interested and participating in sports.
Who We've Helped
We began our work in 2016 and have offered over 1000 kids opportunities in sports; including training , camps, clinics, and organized teams.
We also proudly implement our "Awareness Athletics," pay it forward program in which our kids have donated over $1000 to local non-profit organizations which assist other children.

We're BACK!
Athletic Haven's programs will begin a slow return for the 2022-2023 school year, beginning with a revolutionary new after school program being run out of School 2 in Troy.
Our goal is to see the return of our open gym program and clinic programs in the coming months, as well as kick off some new programs in various sports.
Our organizational meetings returned via Zoom call on November 16th. We invite you to join us at an upcoming meeting. Our meeting schedule can be found on our calendar. As the need grows for more sports programming opportunities for our children, we need all the ideas, volunteers and contacts we can find.
Thank you for your continued patience and support of our organization as we enter our 6th year of trying to level the playing field in youth sports!

Athletic Haven turns seven years old in June. We express our gratefulness for the businesses, organizations and individuals who sustain us, and the volunteers who support us. In just four years, we have provided our region's youth with many opportunities to experience the benefits that sports can offer. We have paid it forward and taught our youth to do the same. We have supported area organizations in need and helped pave educational journeys through scholarship.
THAT IS OUR MISSION AND THAT IS WHAT MOVES US.
