Youth Basketball Coaches Needed! The City of Tracy is once again very pleased to offer their Youth Hoops program for a very reasonable fee. One of the reasons that the City is able to offer a very successful and exceptional program at this low fee is due to the commitment of the community in supporting the league. The greatest opportunity to support the program is through volunteering as a coach in one of the age divisions. Not only does volunteering for the program assist with this program, it offers you the chance to make a difference in the lives of our local youth. Research has shown that participants in recreation programs such as the City’s Youth Hoops league stay in school longer, have fewer problems with the law and become better citizens. We encourage you to consider this opportunity to give back to your community. Coach’s commitment is only two hours per week, one for practice and one for games when the season starts. No experience is necessary as the City provides free coaches training for all volunteers. To volunteer or for further information, please call (209) 831-6200.

Youth Hoops Players’ Skills Assessment Day

PiYo Strength

Get an ultra lean and intensely defined physique without bulking up or straining your joints. Think sculpted abdominals, increased overall core strength and great stability. PiYo Strength is a hybrid athletic workout that combines the

mind and body practices of Yoga and Pilates, as well as the principles of stretch, strength training, conditioning and dynamic movement. During a PiYo class you will find yourself standing in a Yoga pose one minute and down on the floor in a Pilates pose the next. PiYo gives you hard core definition, intense calorie burn, and overall strength without weights, jumps and without destroying your body.

Tai Chi for Energy

This program is comprised of two different styles of Tai Chi. Chen style is very vigorous and complex, combining fast and slow movements with powerful spiritual force. Sun style incorporates unique qigong (life energy) movements with agile

stepping. These two seemingly contrasting styles have complementary internal energy. The combined movements from Chen and Sun styles produce a powerful synergy. In a relatively short period of time with regular practice, this program will help you acquire better health and wellness, internal energy, and ability to manage stress.
