Mission Statement

Mission Statement

The specific purpose of APAL is to provide a common meeting ground for police officers, community volunteers and the youth of Albany in the areas of amateur athletics, educational, community service, and recreational activities.  In addition, APAL will foster and encourage sportsmanship teamwork, goodwill and fellowship.  APAL will provide facilities and supervision to enable youth who have or have not been able to enjoy participating in organized sports, educational, community service and recreational activities.

Program Summaries

The operating model of the Albany Police Activities League changed dramatically after shutting down during the COVID 19 pandemic.

Recreation Programs Scholarships

The return of youth programs by the Albany Recreation and Community Services Department provided a wonderful opportunity for APAL to provide scholarships for community members.

Kid Zones

APAL partnered with the Albany Recreation and Community Services Department to enhance “kid zones” at various events. The giant blocks that create an Imagination Playground Area were donated by APAL to provide a fun activity for our little ones.

High School Scholarships

Each spring APAL awards a scholarship to a student from an Albany high school who will be starting college or other post high school training from an accredited institution in following academic year. Please see the APAL Scholarships page for guidelines and an application.
