The fall and winter sports seasons have been busy ones for Polk County Parks and Recreation, with an equally busy spring just ahead. Here are notes and news from Polk County Parks and Rec:

Basketball is in full swing!

Basketball season is back and off to an awesome start! We have over 200 players signed up across six different age groups, and it has all the makings of another fantastic season. Swing by Stearns Gym or Polk County Middle School to check out the action!

2017 Fall Sports in Review

Soccer

This fall we had an incredible soccer season at Polk County Parks & Recreation! We had nearly 260 players signed up to form 26 teams in four exciting age groups. This season was a blast and we cannot wait to get back out there for the Spring season!

Girls Volleyball

On November 16, we wrapped up another spectacular volleyball season. Volleyball has been one of the most popular youth sports in our community in recent years, and this was evidenced by the awesome turnout we had for this fall season. With more than 130 girls signed up in three different age groups, forming 17 teams, this was another season to remember!
