To provide member access to YMCA parking during the street closures connected with this very popular event, the YMCA will monitor our lot. YMCA parking may be accessed via the alley off Chemeketa St between Church and Cottage while Cottage St. and Court St. are closed to thru traffic. Please have your parking pass ready to show the attendant. YMCA lot usage, according to our policy, is a maximum of 3 hours per day for Y members using the facility.

If you are attending Hoopla, please utilize the free Hoopla parking area:

Sports at the Y provide a safe, clean, and fun environment so your family can get back to enjoying the activities you love.

Many sports are included with a Family Membership. We offer income-based discounts to any family that makes less than $60K/year. Contact your local branch for more information. To improve league experience and offset increasing site costs, we have implemented a $25 non-refundable registration fee for all youth sports, for the Fall 2025 season.

Each player registered for a team sport will need a jersey. You can purchase a reversible jersey at your local branch for $20. This jersey can be used & re-used for all team sports at the Y: Micro through 6th grade.
