WINTER YOUTH BASKETBALL
Did you know? Basketball was invented as an indoor winter sport by the YMCA!
We honor a tradition that stretches back over 130 years with annual Winter Leagues that promote healthy competition over rivalry and prove the value of participation over winning. The Y pairs team-building with individual development, positive self-image, and a sense of fair play.

During the week, teams are given YMCA gym space for practice at designated times on Monday/Wednesday or Tuesday/Thursday (to be assigned as teams form). Teams then face off during games every Saturday from January 20 to March 9.
- Boys League: 1st-8th grades
- Girls League: 1st-5th grades
- Player Fee: $70
Registration is open November 1st through December 29th. There are two steps to register and BOTH steps are required before a spot is secured.

YOUTH SPORTS
