The City of Kerman is dedicated to providing recreational youth sports programs to the community.  These programs will help provide a fun and exciting way to cultivate a child’s physical and mental development.  Team sports are particularly beneficial in teaching children how to operate in a group dynamic and positively participate with others.

The City of Kerman’s Recreation Department currently manages three sports programs basketball, t-ball/baseball, and volleyball.

Please remember, The City of Kerman’s goal is to aide in the development of children’s abilities by teaching them skills and strategies in an atmosphere that values sportsmanship and encourages positive interaction.  We are thankful for all parents who support youth sports which are here to provide a positive experience for all involved.  We ask for your full support by signing the Parent/Spectator Code of Conduct Form below and returning it to us with your minor’s registration form.
