Best Recreation Center

Hancock Recreation Center

Hancock Rec offers more than just a great afterschool program and fun club. It has youth sports (inter-rec center soccer, girls volleyball, and co-ed flag football leagues), a convenient nine-hole golf course, a playground, plus some of the area's most lovely and affordable grounds for weddings or parties. There's something for everyone: Club UBU for the teens, Tiny Tots for preschoolers, fitness, dance, music, and drawing, plus the Austin Writers' League Science Fiction and Poetry workshops and Bilingual Toastmasters, and of course a wonderful aftercare program. Kids love the cool, friendly counselors so much, that they often don't want to leave! A Parks & Recreation gem, Hancock is a favorite of Austinites from all over town.
