About Quest for the
Cup


The Quest for the Cup gives kids living in a foster
care environment a chance to step out of the shadows,” explains William Waller, YCS Vice President of Specialized Foster care
services. YCS initiated the games in 2012 so young men could
develop their athletic abilities, forge new friendships amongst their peers, and
experience the joy and improved self-confidence that comes
from putting forth their best efforts.
