The year 2023 marks the 70th anniversary of the Roslyn Boys & Girls Club. At the time of its founding, the club provided a place for area youth to play football, baseball, softball, and soccer. The organization built a clubhouse to furnish a facility that could provide indoor activities, serve as a place where meetings could be held, and provide an area for storage. The facility was rebuilt following its devastation from Hurricane Fran in September 1996. Today, our sports program continues to flourish and has prospered. We offer quality baseball, basketball, soccer, and softball programs.

Additionally, we offer the Joseph Marsden Scholarship Fund to eligible high school graduates seeking to further their education. You can read about our most recent award recipients here. We also provide no-cost community events, including our annual Santa Night and Easter Egg Hunt. Our facilities are available to rent for your next event (learn more). And, as a non-profit, we are able to accept tax-deductible donations to help support our programs (donate now).

Thanks to the many volunteers who have supported us over the years as coaches, team parents, board members, and more. And, thanks to the many players who have participated in our sports programs. We could not do what we do without you!
