Dr. E.M. Abdulmumin, UCR project administrator of the National Youth Sports Program, said the summer activities are intended to provide a safe and structured environment for youth from low-income families where they can learn sports, meet new friends, become familiar with a college campus and further develop their academic skills. UCR students, faculty, staff, and volunteers from the campus and the community will staff the program. All youths participating in the program must first receive and pass a free physical examination provided through the program. The physical exams will be provided by volunteer UCR biomedical sciences program staff, affiliates and community physicians at th e UCR Student Health Center. Each participant will also receive a free daily breakfast and lunch.
Registration is on a first-come, first served basis.
