Need-Based Discount for Cary Recreation Programs
Cary is committed to providing equal opportunities for all residents to participate in programs, ensuring cost is not a barrier. Qualifying households may receive discounts up to 95% on all Parks, Recreation, and Cultural Resources programming. More information and how to apply can be found on the need-based discount webpage.
Volunteer Coaches
Cary relies on volunteer coaches for youth sports leagues. Coaches must be available for weekly practice and games. Each coach must be certified by the National Youth Sports Coaches Association and pass a background check. It is important that coaches teach both sportsmanship and sports skills. Anyone interested in coaching should visit the Volunteer Youth Coach webpage or email sports@carync.gov for more information.
Multipurpose Fields for Free Play
Time is available at Middle Creek Park and Thomas Brooks Park for “free play” activities. Learn more about the free play field locations and times here.
