Merrillville Park District is partnering with Ross Township Park District and D’Up Sports Management Group. This will allow participants a vast array of competition and fun.

All participants will be provided with a jersey and matching shorts.

Practices will be held during the week and games will be played on Saturdays. Both will be located at the Dean and Barbara White Community Center.

Practices times are 5:30-6:30pm or 6:30-7:30pm. Game starting times will vary between 8:30am to 4:30pm.

All age divisions will play a eight-week regular season, with a season ending tournament. Awards will be given to the tournament champions and tournament runners-up.

At the Merrillville Park District, all of our youth sports coaches are volunteers. If you would like to make a positive impact in a young person’s life, please consider volunteering. If interested in volunteering, please email Chris Geiger, Recreation Coordinator at cgeiger@merrillville.in.gov
