Our mission

LYSN

At Lansing Youth Sports Network, we are driven by a singular mission: to level the playing field for children in Lansing, and the Greater Lansing area by providing access to organized sports activities. 


Founded in 2023 by MSU students, our non-profit organization is committed to breaking down barriers and fostering a community where every child has the opportunity to participate in sports regardless of their socioeconomic background.


We believe that sports not only promote physical health and well-being but also instill invaluable life skills such as teamwork, discipline, and resilience. By offering children in need the ability to enroll in local sports leagues at no cost, we aim to empower youth in Lansing to discover their potential, build confidence, and forge lasting friendships.


Central to our mission is inclusivity. We actively collaborate with local schools, community centers, and volunteers to identify and reach out to children who face financial or logistical obstacles to sports participation. Through our dedicated efforts, we aspire to create a supportive network that nurtures the athletic talents and aspirations of every child, regardless of their circumstances.


At Lansing Youth Sports Network, we envision a future where every child in our community has the opportunity to thrive and succeed, both on and off the field. Join us as we strive to make this vision a reality, one game at a time.
