About Troy

What makes for strong self-esteem discipline, and physical health? Why are these such crucial attributes to develop at a young age? The answer is simple: individuals who possess these qualities are often more successful in life, tend to make good choices, and tend to be stable both emotionally and financially. There are many ways to develop strong self-esteem, discipline, and physical health—one of the most obvious ways is early involvement in organized sports, especially for young, energetic children. Troy, Michigan seems to have recognized the benefits of early involvement in sports, and as a result, this city is among the best for organized athletic programs in the state. In fact, in 2003, Troy was named Michigan's Sportstown by Sports Illustrated Magazine for having the top community sports programs in the state.

The Parks and Recreation Department of Troy provides many programs for children and youth involvement in sports. The city boasts 50+ softball leagues for boys and girls, not to mention soccer, football, and basketball as well. Even adults have joined in the athletic games, with their own leagues in soccer, softball, and basketball. According to the Parks’ Department website, “Troy Recreation is committed to providing quality sports programs for people of all ages that promote good sportsmanship and a healthy lifestyle.” While Sports Illustrated Magazine’s recognition of this commitment is several years old, it is clear that Troy continues to provide a healthy athletic environment for its citizens, both young and old.

Troy Sports Center, a local ice rink, runs year-round promoting physical health with hockey and ice skating classes, leagues, and also public hours for non-team related recreation. Manhattan Dance Studio is also located at the Sports Center, for those less inclined to exert their physical talents on the ice and would rather do so on the barre. This facility is a long-standing participant in the athletic culture of Troy, and sees thousands of people use its facilities throughout the year, especially in winter, when hockey and skating occupy many people’s time.

Play 4 Fun Sports is yet another athletic facility dedicated to the benefits of sports for the young community of Troy. Their mission is to provide quality sports programs, leagues and clinics for kids that teach fundamentals, teamwork, positive attitudes, and the importance of having fun while playing sports. A flag football league operates out of Play 4 Fun in Troy, as well as other after-school sports teams, such as soccer and basketball. Play 4 Fun even offers personal training courses, encouraging a variety of residents to come take advantage of the benefits afforded by physical fitness.
