WSAA Purpose
The Westside Youth Athletic Athletic Association (WSYAA) is a non-profit youth athletic association, whose sole purpose is to serve the youth of the Westside Community. It is comprised entirely of volunteers and 90% of its funding is provided through internal fundraising means. It is the largest youth athletic association in Whitfield County.
The Westside Youth Athletic Association is a charitable, volunteer organization designed to provide a positive environment for the development of sportsmanship, athletic skills and character. We operate programs for youth between the ages of 4 and 18 in baseball, softball, football, cheerleading, and basketball. These programs are managed in accordance with guidelines set forth by national and international youth sports organizations. This organization serves the youth of Westside and Whitfield County, Georgia

Since there is no local westside Government entity, WSYAA is the only Westside community organization that represents the entire Westside community.
Article II of the Constitution and By-Laws of the Westside Youth Athletic Association states "….the community is the backbone of our American way of life, and that upon its strength depends the future of America, and that the greatest handicap to building and maintaining a strong rural community is the difficulty of getting a group of rural people representing all sports, interests and segments of the community together regularly, so that problems affecting the community may be systematically and thoroughly considered….."
WSYAA meets each month on the second Sunday of each month at 2:00 at the Westside Elementary School Gym. Every parent is encouraged to attend and participate.
