Sports

Emerald Youth serves athletes who live in neighborhoods in the heart of the city including Five Points, Burlington, Mechanicsville, Lonsdale, Whittle Springs, Oakwood-Lincoln Park, Vestal, and Woodlawn.
Space for athletes in other areas is very limited.

Sports are integral to Emerald Youth’s work to engage more Knoxville youth in health and wellness initiatives.

Emerald Youth Sports collaborates with Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) to connect a greater number of youth with recreational and competitive sports teams, while teaching young athletes about the importance of caring for their bodies in God-honoring ways. Read more about our Sports Philosophy here.
