Basketball skills and drills, good old-fashioned dodgeball, the ever-popular double-dutch jump rope, and more keep PAL children and teens outside and active with their friends. PAL coaches and staff supervise the neighborhood summer play, and NYPD officers volunteer their time to join neighborhood youth, helping to promote positive relationships in the community.
