Crusader Youth Sports was founded because many Salem Academy families wanted their children to continue playing sports alongside classmates and friends.
Previously, youth athletics were fragmented across multiple organizations and informal parent groups. Some children were unintentionally left out simply because they were not connected to the right families or teams.
Crusader Youth Sports was created to provide an organized, welcoming, Christ-centered environment where every Salem Academy student who wants to participate has the opportunity to play. We value competition, but we believe character, community, and faith are even more important.
