Youth Basketball League (Jan - Feb)

2026 Youth Basketball League (Jan - Feb)
We offer a youth basketball league each Winter (games: January – February), with registration typically taking place in August – November.  Players register individually and our staff will create teams.  We value our volunteer coaches, as they are essential to the success of our program. 
The season starts off a clinic that takes place December 6th, 2025 at the City Gym. The clinic is usually held on a Saturday. Starting in January, each team in the 8U – 14U age groups will receive one slot of practice time (1 hour) and will play one game each week (practice is mid-week, games are on Saturdays).
