Our Story
The Philadelphia Athletics Youth Sports Association (PAYSA) was founded in May 2013 to provide youth in the Philadelphia metropolitan area with sports education and character-building experiences. By offering instruction from basic to advanced levels, PAYSA fosters teamwork, sportsmanship, leadership, and decision-making skills in a competitive environment. Serving the diverse West Philadelphia community, PAYSA creates opportunities for underserved families who may lack access to youth sports.
