Youth Sports

Youth Basketball League (K-4)
Youth Basketball League is a values based league where boys and girls learn to play in the spirit of good sportsmanship. Practices are weekdays with games on Saturday. Each league will play a minimum of eight games and the leagues are broken down into three based on grade level.

Grades K-1
This level is great for the beginner. With lowered baskets (8’), loose refereeing and no score kept the kids are allowed to fall in love with the game while learning the fundamentals of basketball.

Grade 2
The basket height (8.5’) goes up and the reffing gets a little stricter as these older kids get a real taste of the game. This league really starts to prepare players for the next level.

Grades 3-4
With the basket at 9 ft. and all rules enforced this is the perfect league to prepare players for Junior High ball while still allowing the kids to have fun.

Tee-Ball (Grades K-2)
Spark your child's interest in the great American pastime by starting them out in our well known Tee-Ball league. This is an instructional, non-competitve league where participants will learn and expand on the fundamentals of baseball.
