The Houston Texans and the Greater Houston YMCA have partnered to open a new YMCA facility in the Palm Center community of Third Ward. The facility, located at the corner of Griggs Rd. and Martin Luther King Blvd., will replace the old South Central YMCA.
The partnership is the first of its kind, making the new Houston Texans YMCA the first YMCA facility in the country to be named after a professional sports team. The partnership will combine two powerful and influential names to benefit the Greater Third Ward community by providing programs including health and wellness, child care, recreational and youth development.
The new facility is the first and most visible result of a larger partnership between the Texans and the YMCA. In keeping with the Texans’ stated goal of being the most community-connected professional sports franchise in the world, the team selected the YMCA as its primary strategic community partner and will work with YMCA staff to develop programming to benefit the children and the community served by the facility.
