Game Ready. Life Ready. Registration is Open!
Basketball
Basketball is a fun sport to play because it has relatively few rules, you can play it year round—both indoors and out—and it’s equally fun to play or practice individually or with a team. Early exposure to basketball will help improve player’s hand-eye coordination and develop their understanding of both offensive and defensive roles. This program is one of the few available that is equipped to teach young people through age-appropriate practice sessions and has shorter hoops designed for this age group.
Each basketball session will develop the individual skills of all players including their dribbling skills and ball-handling abilities, passing and team play, shooting technique, and overall game understanding. Each session will progress from individual play to a final game.
Program Schedule:
- Practices: Thursdays, January 10-February 28, 6:00-7:00 p.m. No practice on February 7.
- End-of-the-season jamboree and award ceremony: Saturday, March 2, 10:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m. (game schedule TBD)
Registration is open!
- The registration fee is $80 but if you register by Friday, December 21, you will receive $10 off per player! Cost includes a reversible basketball jersey and participation trophy.

Movement Mondays
This preschool program is designed to teach children various ways to move their bodies and basic sports skills like throwing, catching, kicking, and dribbling (with feet and hands). These skills are great building blocks for future sport learning and a fun way to stay active!
