Children ages 8-12 are welcomed on Tuesdays from 7:30pm-9pm at the Edgewood STEAM Academy Gymnasium, 241 Maple Ave, Pittsburgh, PA 15218. This is not a competitive league, but rather an opportunity to get some exercise during the cold winter months and learn an exciting new sport. There is no charge to participate but registration through TeamSnap is required.
