The Jersey City Department of Recreation & Youth Development is pleased to report that our Winter season programs; basketball, boxing, soccer, track and so much more are posted in the “Programs” section and will run from November, 2024 thru March 2025.
*** Some fees are associated with programs ***

As of June 1, 2023, the Jersey City Department of Recreation & Youth Development has moved to our new online system, Facilitron, for facility field permits and scheduling. While this will take a little time to have everything converted to reflect accurate availability, we ask that you please help us make this process as seamless as possible. First, we need to you create an account on www.facilitron.com/cityofjerseycity upload your current certificate of insurance.

Please visit https://jcrec.recdesk.com/Community/Facility?type=2 to learn more about our Pool Pre-Season Schedule. Swim lessons are posted in the “programs” section.

If your family qualifies as Low-to-Moderate-Income (“LMI”), discounted registration rates are available to you. To complete the required application and establish your family as LMI, click on the following link: https://jcrec.recdesk.com/Community/Membership/Detail?membershipId=3774.

Welcome to RecDesk!

First time users: Please create a parent account first, and then add other household members. This will help keep the whole household organized.

Registration payments can now be made via credit card directly through the RecDesk portal, but if you prefer, cash or money order can be paid at the Pershing Field Ice Skating Rink, located at 800 Summit Avenue, Monday – Friday, 9am-3pm.

Additional information, such as proof of age or address, may be requested depending on each program’s prerequisites. In this case, please provide this information within 72 hours to secure your spot in the program.
