Three-Day All Girls Sports And Wellness Festival Returns in April

Mayor Michelle Wu, in partnership with the Boston Parks and Recreation Department and Boston Centers for Youth & Families (BCYF), invites Boston girls aged 7 to 12 to participate in the annual All Girls Sports and Wellness Festival during April Boston Public Schools vacation week.

 

The All Girls Sports and Wellness Festival offers a diverse range of activities to inspire and empower young girls. From sports and games to health and wellness speakers, self-defense tactics, and aquatic activities, the programming aims to engage the mind, body, and spirit. Expert instructors, with additional support from local non-profits and City of Boston agencies, will guide girls through sports such as basketball, fitness conditioning, swimming, ultimate frisbee, and more.

 

The first two days of the festival, April 23 to 24, will take place at various BCYF locations across the city. On the third and final day of the festival, scheduled for April 25, all participants from the various BCYF centers will convene at the University of Massachusetts Boston. Transportation will be provided from the BCYF centers to UMass Boston, ensuring access to the festival's final day for all participants.
