We have created a brochure that will give you a feel for our Youth Group.  However, if you would like more detailed information about our group or about our sports programs you can email our President  David Higashi.

Fund raising is an important part of our Youth Group activities.  These activities provide the funds for running the organization, awards for our players and offset costs involved with gym rentals.  But we recognize that our members have busy lives and currently participate in only four fundraising events.  They are:  SOC Reverse Raffle, Clipper's Night, SOC Pancake Breakfast and Annual Awards Dinner Raffle.
 

We have held basketball practices in various gyms in and around the Whittier areas.  Each year is a challenge to secure a location for our youth to practice and we are very careful to  stay in good terms with the hosting gym.  This year we are holding practice at La Serna HS in Whittier on Saturdays.  For Baseball, we do not have a set field for practice as of yet but intend to secure a field in the Hacienda/Rowland Heights area.

We have just started to hold activities with the Suburban Optimist Club of Buena Park our parent organization.  This past summer we had a year end picnic and this year we are planning more fun family events outside of organized sports.

South East Youth Organization (SEYO) was created in 1963 through the efforts of Mr. Bob Wada.  Bob not only started SEYO he also is credited with founding our parent organization the Suburban Optimist Club of Buena Park (SOC).  In the beginning, SEYO started with only 5 teams, the players coming from the Whittier/La Mirada & Anaheim/Orange County areas.  Today, SEYO has grown to over 190 basketball and 30 baseball teams.  SEYO is the governing body and coordinator of organized basketball and baseball league activities and is made up of representatives from all participating youth groups.  Link to their website: http://seyo.org
