Our Mission
SVAA’s mission is to enrich the lives of children and their families by providing well-organized, age-appropriate, and enjoyable youth sports programs. We offer a wide range of recreational sports for children of all ages and skill levels, fostering teamwork, sportsmanship, and community.
SVAA is a nonprofit, volunteer-driven organization based in Dallas, Texas, serving families throughout the RISD and North Dallas areas. Our programs give children the opportunity to learn, grow, and have fun through recreational sports—without pressure or tryouts.
