Welcome to PAL of Delaware!

Our Mission:

  • Prevent youth crime in Delaware by providing youth between the ages of 8 to 18 with supervised athletic, educational, and social development activities.

  • Reach out to youth with programs which address citizenship, self-esteem, substance abuse, and respect for law and order.

  • Encourage participation and support by the community in P.A.L. programs to help build a solid foundation for Delaware's youth- for life.  

The Police Athletic League of Delaware prides itself on being an integral part of the lives of young people. Throughout the school year as well as the summer months the PAL offers many different prevention programs that we hope will deter juvenile delinquency. Through collaboration with the New Castle County Police Department the effectiveness of these programs is intensified. The officer's presence and influences on the young people promote a positive outlook for possible future endeavors.


P.A.L. is currently reaching out to Delaware's youth from two sites located in New Castle County.  The 35,000 square foot site in Garfield Park opened in 1994, and the newest site in Hockessin opened in March 2001 .
