The Park Hill Pirates Youth Sports Organization was founded in 1968 by the late William “Bill” Roberts, a respected businessman and politician in Denver. Over the years, the Pirates have shaped countless young individuals into successful professionals, including lawyers, doctors, politicians, professional athletes, community leaders, and dedicated citizens.

With a legacy of positively impacting thousands of youth across the city, our notable alumni include former Denver Mayor Michael Hancock, Colorado State Senator James Coleman, Portland Trail Blazers Assistant Coach Rodney Billups, NFL stars Calais Campbell, LenDale White, Chau Wade-Smith, and honorary Pirate Daniel Graham, as well as Dr. Ryan Ross, Herman White Sr., Herman White Jr., Mikoyan Watson, Allen Webb, Roman Hollowell, Cortney Hysaw, Thal Woods, and many others.

Numerous Pirates have earned academic and athletic scholarships, graduated college, and returned to their communities to give back.
