Roseville Junior Sports, Inc. (also referred to as
R.J.S.),is a non-profit youth sports organization.
ROSEVILLE JR. SPORTS, INC.

Our intent is simple: If we can keep our youth of today busy and
involved in positive ways maybe we can help suppress juvenile
delinquency.
R.J.S. is governed by 100% volunteers, which make up its Board of
Directors. Included in this Board of Directors is an Executive Board
(President, Vice-President, Secretary, Treasurer and Recording
Secretary), who oversees the daily operations of R.J.S. These Board
of Directors and Executive Board members are made up of parents,
coaches or just simply adults who care very much for children and
their activities and how they affect our community.
No Board Member receives any salary or compensation for their
efforts to the programs. Hours of free time by these people are
donated for the best interest of children and R.J.S. Programs.
Coaches are one of our biggest assets, they do not receive pay for
any of their duties or responsibilities.
The sports we offer are baseball, softball, football and cheer
leading. These sports are available for boys and girls ages 5 - 14
(ages depending on each sport).
R.J.S. has a very storied and proud past, since being incorporated
back in 1956. Many good men and women have put forth great effort
into making R.J.S. what it is today. Many volunteers, directors,
coaches, supporters, sponsors and parents participated in R.J.S.
programs when they were kids. Hopefully, some of our kids today,
will also come back as adults to uphold the traditions and values of
R.J.S. and make R.J.S. an outstanding program as it was then, it is
now, and will be for many years to come!
Most of our programs are competitive in nature, but that is not the
only part of the sport we focus on. Some of our biggest goals
include: teaching sportsmanship, dedication, fairness and learning
to accept and deal with losing in a positive manner.
"For it is in losing that we learn how to be good winners."
Winning is important to us at R.J.S. - and we will try to give our
participants every tool and bit of knowledge available to succeed -
BUT WE WILL NOT TRY TO WIN AT ALL COST!
Doing your best will always be far better than good enough!! And
lets not forget the most important part of our program FUN! This
should and will be our first priority - to ensure our players to have
fun. Whether or not it's having a pop and a hot dog after the game,
or just making new friends with teammates and/or opposing
teammates. The camaraderie made with kids in sports can
sometimes and will last a lifetime.
