Athletics United is a non-profit organization based in Logan, UT. Activities are free and available for all.
Building community through sport.
With a focus on inclusivity, Athletics United proactively engages with new American families to offer free access to activities promoting personal growth and belonging.
Through weekly activities (athletics practices and tutoring), Athletics United creates a safe space for all participants to foster friendships, build trust and strengthen community.
We rely on the generous donations of our local community and do not charge anyone to participate.
We are looking for enthusiastic volunteers to commit time and energy to strengthen our local community. Volunteers assist with weekly practices and events through: motivating/teaching athletes, ensuring a safe and welcoming environment for all, and mentoring young people. There is no athletic requirement to volunteer and all are welcome. If you are interested in volunteering, please click below.
Your donation to Athletics United helps cover costs associated with: training and competition (i.e., athletic equipment, race entry fees, competition preparation fees, facility costs); participant materials (i.e., training apparel, uniforms, food); educational opportunities (i.e., nutrition and technique education).
We truly appreciate and thank you for your support!
