Police and Community Youth Club

Police and Community Youth Clubs (PCYC) originated in Sydney, Australia on 1 April 1937. They were originally known as the "Police Rotary Youth Club", and later, "Police Boy's Clubs". There are currently 59 clubs in New South Wales.

History

The organisation is community-based and involves the provision of low-cost structured activities to children and adults, aimed specifically at the underprivileged persons in the community.

The clubs contain a wide variety of sports such as basketball, indoor soccer, weightlifting gyms, dancing, wrestling/grappling, boxing, martial arts and many other activities and hobbies. Different clubs may have different activities going on to one another.
