The Beginning

Born From a Parent's Frustration

In 2018, our founder Sarah spent weeks researching summer camps for her three kids. She found herself drowning in Google searches, outdated websites, and conflicting information. There had to be a better way.

That frustration sparked an idea: what if there was one trusted place where families could discover, compare, and book youth sports camps? A platform that verified every listing and made it easy to find programs by sport, location, age, and budget?

Today, YouthSportsUSA helps hundreds of thousands of families each year find quality sports camps across all 50 states. We've grown from a simple directory to a comprehensive platform with verified reviews, detailed camp profiles, and personalized recommendations.
