One Glendale Program Update

Welcome to the 2024-2025 One Glendale After School Youth Sports Program! One Glendale has four sports seasons: Flag Football, Volleyball, Basketball, and Soccer.

One Glendale’s Flag Football season will operate from August 26, 2024, through October 18, 2024. The program is coed, open to 4th and 5th graders at eight different south Glendale elementary schools. Each school can have 30 participants per sport. Students must participate in the program at the school they attend. While practices are conducted on each campus, games for this season will take place at the Pacific-Edison campus, located at 501 S. Pacific Ave., Glendale, CA 91204.

Each school is responsible for selecting participants and managing a wait list. If you are selected, you will receive an e-mail to complete the registration forms, or the forms will be sent home for completion with your child. The forms must be completed and turned in by the first day of the program. The City of Glendale, Community Services & Parks Department is not responsible for the selection of participants at any of the school sites.

About One Glendale

One Glendale was developed, in partnership with the Glendale Unified School District (GUSD) and Glendale Parks & Open Space Foundation, to prevent child hood obesity, build self-esteem, teach leadership skills, and address classroom discipline, by providing after school recreation programming through organized sports. The primary objectives and goals for this program include: Increased daily physical activity; reduced screen time, increased consumption of nutritious foods like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and low fat milk; decreased consumption of sugar/high-fat foods like soda, junk food, and fast food; and overall weight loss among participants. Secondary objectives and goals include: Improved grades; increased self-esteem; improved listening and comprehension skills both at home and at school; and improved interaction with fellow students and family members.

Currently, eight south Glendale elementary schools participate in the program. The program has four seasons concentrating on a specific sport eight weeks at a time, including flag football, volleyball, basketball, and soccer. Each school participates with up to thirty 4^th and 5^th grade students who otherwise do not have access to organized sports. Each season completes with a championship game between the top four schools.
