Your first visit

Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.

First step: Send a message through the Contact Us page on blackwomeninsport.org to ask how to enroll in the youth program..

You need to sign up first.

What to expect

Youth sessions mix sports such as fencing, field hockey, golf, and softball with academic enrichment, and they focus on confidence and healthy habits. The group provides equipment to students. The site does not say how long a session lasts, how many girls attend, or what it costs, so ask when you get in touch.

Tips for your first visit

  • Ask about enrollment steps, forms, and fees through the Contact Us page before the first day.
  • Ask which school or recreation center a session meets at, since days and times vary by location.

Newcomer welcome

Fine for newcomers, but you may need to speak up (3 out of 5). Why we say this: Families are asked to contact the group directly to enroll, a clear first step, but the site gives no forms, fees, age ranges, or first-session details..
