To the parents of all BOYS & GIRLS in Grades 4 through 8, if your son or daughter is interested in playing travel basketball.
Participants must register by OCTOBER 17th.  All players registered will go through 3 try out dates in mid October.

Players who do not make the team may transfer their Registration to the Recreation Basketball league.
 
On October 18th we will decide how many teams we will have, this will be decided by the number of players registered. Please be sure to register by October 17th. 
 
Our goal is to contact as many boys and girls to inform them of all the information. This is an excellent opportunity to have your son/daughter learn the fundamentals of the game and play against some tough competition and have some fun. This program is a feeder program to the Middle School and High School teams.
