A Quick Tour of Our Youth Programs
To celebrate the Spring Semester, our new website has gone live. Most things are in the same place or can be easily found using the top navigation bar. We’re prioritizing the information parents and children tell us they need, plus making it easy to find out what’s happening in your area and which coaches are involved.
Here are a few of the most useful pages for our stars and their parents.

Our Philosophy for Your Star
At ActivStars, we believe that the best after-school program is one that teaches, through kids sports, lessons and healthy habits that can be used in the classroom and in life too. That commitment drives everything we do. And because of that same commitment for 60 years, we’ve become the leading US provider of affordable youth sports programs for all families with children ages 4-17.
Central to our teaching and coaching is involvement in our local communities. That’s why all of our instructors and coaches are hired locally within the community. Though, they still need to meet rigorous training and background checks to ensure we keep your star safe.
From youth soccer and karate to cheerleading and more, we have a solid educational plan to help your child grow safe and strong.
Our Story: 5 States. More Than 20,000 Families
Our commitment to safe, enjoyable, and smart education begins in the 1950s when our founder and family matriarch, Bonnie Hood, began teaching sports for kids in her community. Her passion extended to her children and family, eventually forming ActivStars to provide youth sports programs.
We’ve blossomed into one of the more extensive programs available with high-quality instruction for youth soccer, youth cheerleading, youth karate, and other sports. Today, we’re offering sports programs in more than 5 states for more than 20,000 families. It’s sports for life and life through sports!
