Yth Basketball 5-6 - 80120

Our basketball program features skill instruction, fundamentals of basketball, good sportsmanship, and teamwork. Our coaches are parent volunteers. What makes our program so special is that our teams average only 7-9 players per team allowing the children to get lots of “touches” on the basketball. Each player on a team plays the same amount regardless of ability. We believe that through playing, kids develop skills, confidence and teamwork.
Join our program regardless of your child’s ability! Each week will include one practice and a game on Saturday.

Volunteer Basketball Coach

The league’s success always depends on the commitment of volunteer coaches. If you like to work with kids or have the willingness to learn how to, we will teach you. Be a positive influence on a child’s development! Anyone who is interested in coaching should contact Park & Recreation upon registration of your child. All coaches are invited to attend the team creation night. In order to do this, it is important that coaches attend the ratings clinics and the team making session immediately following.

Referee information

If you have a basketball background and a desire to learn the finer points of the game, then refereeing may be for you. Referees and scorekeepers should contact Park & Rec. by November 1st.
