PURPOSE: Provide an atmosphere that allows participants to become engaged and grow as individuals and basketball players. 

Kinder-2nd Grade

Kinder will be coed and there will be a 1st/2nd boys and girls league.

Season will be 8 weeks.

Games will be played on an 8 foot rim at an elementary school and use a 27.5 youth size basketball.

Teams will be created by students home school with practice at a neighboring elementary school.

No score will be kept.

Practice will start the second week of January and there will be an hour practice each week from 6:15pm-7:15pm. Day of the week TBD by coach.

Games will be on Saturday at 8am, 9am, 10am, 11am, 12pm, 1pm or 2pm.

Clinic: The format for the league is once a week, Saturday, for 75 minutes. Specifically, 45 minutes of skills, such as dribbling, passing and shooting, and 3v3 for the remaining 30 minutes. Teams are created each week to ensure a competitive balance. The 3v3 format provides more "touches" for players which contributes to a better overall experience. In addition, 3v3 allows the offense more space to score and be successful. The focus is to make sure every player has success and a great experience.
