The Park Ridge Athletic Association encourages youth development by providing opportunities for personal and athletic growth. The PRAA promotes sportsmanship, self-esteem and the development of life skills through engaging youths in sports while providing a safe, healthy, positive environment. Our PRAA Members, Sports Commissioners and Coaches handle a variety of tasks including running each sports program, coordinating fundraising events, uniforms and equipment, the scheduling of games and field/gym time, team organization, inter-town communication and coordination and many other things.
Without our PRAA Trustees, Commissioners, Coaches and Volunteers our sports programs would not be possible. Become involved, and help contribute to the growth and on-going maintenance of the sports programs for your children.
The mission of the PRAA is to encourage the participation of the children of Park Ridge in the athletic and recreational activities; to provide the program, equipment and leadership for such activities; and to foster the interest of the community at large in the support of these activities. The vision of the of the Association is to firmly implant in the children of the community the ideals of good sportsmanship, honesty, loyalty, courage and teamwork so that they may be finer, stronger and happier children.
