HUTCHINSON, Kan. — David Foster with the Hutchinson YMCA said that there are some new programs getting ready to start later this year. One of those is a sports performance training program.
"It's a new program that we're offering," Foster said. "It's dedicated, really for younger athletes. It just helps them improve their speed, agility and if they are interested in a specific sport, we can tailor it directly to whatever sport that they are interested in, but most sports it covers with just the speed and agility training, working with reflexes and things of that nature."
This is usually for those from 7 or 8 years old all the way through high school.
"People can sign up now," Foster said. "We're definitely kind of gearing that towards summer with a lot of our other programs and offerings that we have coming up in the summertime."
The Y also plans to start martial arts classes later this year.
"We have an instructor that teaches at a couple of our other branches in the association," Foster said. "He'll be coming out to Hutch to teach those classes. Those will start June 2. Registration for those will start in May."
