The Associates is an organization operated entirely by volunteers-our Board, coaches, team managers and all others who help the teams and the organization as a whole. It is through this dedication that we are able to offer a high quality program for our youth. Through our relationship with the Japanese Cultural and Community Center (JCCCNC), we are able to use the JCCCNC’s gym and facilities for our programs.
