MARPSA

Mid-Atlantic Recreation and Parks Sports Alliance

The Mid-Atlantic Recreation and Parks Sports Alliance supports GoodSports in our Communities. Players, Coaches, Officials, Administrators and Spectators are requested to honor the GoodSports Pledge.  

Recognition of MARPSA GoodSports was created to highlight the positive sportsmanship within our communities. Each member organization should play a part in honoring GoodSports by identifying one Coach, Athlete, Official and Administrator who has demonstrated positive sportsmanship in recreation sponsored programs.
