2026 Youth Sport Clinics
2026 Youth Sport Clinics

Join Oak Island Recreation for our Youth Sports Clinic series! These clinics are two hour sessions that will take place on a monthly basis, with the goal of providing opportunities for kids aged 6-12 to try a new sport, learn more about the sport, and meet other kids interested in them as well! The cost of this program is $25 for residents and $30 for non-residents. The locations of these clinics will typically take place at Bill Smith Park (4446 Fish Factory Rd SE, Southport, NC 28461), except for basketball clinics which will take place at Middleton Park Complex (102 SE 47th St, Oak Island, NC 28465). We hope to see you all out there and if there are any questions, please reach out to Jacob Hyle (jhyle@oakislandnc.gov) for more information!

Please note that each participant must have a completed activity waiver as a part of sign up. Additionally, from May - August, the programs will be on hiatus to accommodate for our athletic and summer camps, as well as our other summertime programming.
