About Us

The Haverford Police Athletic Association has been bringing the community together since its founding in 2021, building meaningful connections between local law enforcement and the residents they proudly serve. Grounded in the belief that strong relationships create stronger, safer neighborhoods, the Association centers its efforts on outreach through athletics — creating opportunities for officers and youth to connect in positive, lasting ways.

At the heart of its mission are the Association’s annual basketball, football, and softball games — community favorites that bring officers and local high school students together on the court and field. In partnership with the high school, these friendly competitions create a welcoming environment where barriers are broken down and mutual respect is built through teamwork and sportsmanship. What begins as a game often grows into meaningful conversation, mentorship, and trust, allowing students to see officers not just as members of law enforcement, but as coaches, teammates, and community members genuinely invested in their success.

Through these annual athletic events, the Haverford Police Athletic Association continues to unite the community — proving that sometimes the strongest bonds are built on the playing field. Contact Sgt. R. McCreight at rmccreight@havpd.org for more information.
