Welcome to the Kansas City Urban Youth Academy
The Kansas City Urban Youth Academy is a non-profit organization with the mission to empower Kansas City’s urban youth to unlock their potential and become the leaders of tomorrow through baseball and softball. The vision for the Academy is to provide Urban youth with a safe, positive environment with coaches, mentors and role models to help them succeed on and off the field.
As an Academy, we are committed to providing a
positive environment for our area youth. We will educate our players on
what it means to be a "professional" while surrounding them with coaches,
mentors, and role models who can teach them how to play the games of baseball
and softball and serve as examples of good citizenship.
Through our
athletic-focused training, education, and character development programs, we
will build a strong foundation for Academy student-athletes, based on work
ethic, leadership, responsibility, accountability, and moral principles. This
foundation will allow Academy student-athletes to acquire that unwavering
strength of purpose that is the keynote of all individual success.
"Empowering Kansas City's youth through baseball and softball, as well as academic and social opportunities, to be the leaders of tomorrow."
