our history
how it was
Memphis Youth Athletics (MYA) was started in 2014 with the help of Marty Sonnenfeldt and Knoxville Youth Athletics. The focus of MYA is to develop the sport of cross country and track in the Memphis & Mid-South area and to encourage kids to live a healthy lifestyle.
MYA encourages kids of all abilities to take their first steps towards an active lifestyle through Memphis Youth Athletics programs. Our management team will provide the foundation for young athletes to further their competitive aspirations in the sports of Track & Field and Cross Country.
