Poinsettia Summer Co-Rec Basketball

West Hollywood / Hollywood · ★ 4.3 (877 reviews)

Poinsettia Summer Co-Rec Basketball offers free basketball programming for youth at the Poinsettia Recreation Center in Los Angeles.

▌ Editor's read The Poinsettia Summer Co-Rec Basketball program is run by the City of Los Angeles Department of Recreation and Parks, specifically at the Poinsettia Recreation Center. The website (recreation.parks.lacity.gov/reccenter/poinsettia) loads and provides contact information and details about the center's offerings, including youth sports. As a municipal program, it is not accredited by the ACA, and no state license number for a camp was found. The program is a day camp format, focusing on basketball. While specific staff-to-camper ratios or background check policies are not explicitly stated on the recreation center's page, as a city-run program, it would likely adhere to municipal employment standards. The Poinsettia Recreation Center has a 4.5-star rating on Google Reviews based on 239 reviews, with many comments praising the facilities and community programs. The center maintains a Facebook page under the handle 'PoinsettiaRecreationCenter' which features updates and photos of activities.

Who thrives here Ages 5–12

Parents at this age band tend to prioritize a balanced rhythm of structured activity and unstructured play, which is the actual differentiator inside any given sports program.
