About Lafayette-Moraga Youth Association

In addition to the traditional athletic experience, LMYA offers a unique combination of sports, staff management skill training, and technology training to high school aged participants. The goal of this ground-breaking program is to provide teenagers, especially girls, with an opportunity to experience leadership and impact in their community. Additionally, it aims to develop real life management and technology experience in order to be better prepared for fields in which women are often underrepresented. Eric Standring, the LMYA volleyball Commissioner, believes that programs such as this one take steps toward addressing the gender inequities so prevalent in the technology industry, as well as provide the participants with an opportunity to make a return on their monetary investment in club sports, and deepen the family connections between trainers, players, and their parents who volunteer with the program.
