Smithsburg Youth Athletics:
Smithsburg Youth Athletics was originally called CSL. It was formed in 1976 to provide sporting opportunities for the youth in the Smithsburg and surrounding area. We provide year round athletic leagues for children in preschool thru 12th grade in a wide variety of sports and skill levels.
Mission Statement:
Our objective is to focus on player
development at all levels of play by building their skills, confidence,
fitness, and sense of community and teamwork. We are also committed to the

Registration Assistance:
It is our sincere desire to see every child
have the opportunity to participate, regardless of their parents' ability to
pay, and we will do whatever is possible to remain accessible to all the
Smithsburg area youth. If your child, or a child you know, would like to take
part-- but may not have the means to do so--we invite you to complete a registration assistance form submit and submit it.
The board of directors will make every
effort to obtain registration assistance for that child.
