The Mission

The mission of the Detroit City Lions Youth Club (DCL) is to provide at-risk boys and girls (ages 5 – 24) access to much needed sports programs and academic services. To that end, our organization focuses on providing both traditional and non-traditional sports such as football, soccer, basketball, baseball, chess, lacrosse, swimming, gymnastics, dance, and cheer; as well as theater, culinary arts, tutoring and mentoring services, STEAM programming, robotics, conflict resolution, leadership development, financial literacy and youth employment. Our efforts will help to cohesively develop healthy bodies and healthy minds of area youth, readying them to become physically and academically competitive in today’s world. This makes Detroit City Lions one of the most diverse youth sports programs in the Metro Detroit area.
