The St. Johns Police Athletic League is part of the Youth Services Unit of the St Johns County Sheriff’s Office.  Sheriff David Shoar provides the personnel, buildings and vehicles for PAL, while all of the program funding comes from donations.  These donations are tax deductible and help enrich the lives of many of our youth.    

PAL is a non-profit organization focused on preventing juvenile delinquency by offering kids positive alternatives, such as youth sports and activities.  The St. Johns County Police Athletic League (PAL) was started in 1991 by former Sheriff Neil J. Perry.  PAL brings youth participants and law enforcement officers together in a positive atmosphere to promote communication and respect for each other.  The programs are staffed by law enforcement officers in cooperation with many volunteers, parents and community members.    

PAL works in cooperation with many local organizations such as the County Recreation Department, St. Johns County School District, United Way of St. Johns County, Juvenile Justice, Weed and Seed and many others to offer programs to the youth of our communities.  PAL is funded in part, by the United Way of St. Johns County.
