Why Drop In?
We wanted to create something where teens who have a passion for basketball can come compete and have fun,” says Des Wilbon, Recreation Specialist at the Fairfield PAL Teen Center. “You don’t need to commit to a full season or stress about making a team – just show up, grab some friends, and get ready to play. It’s all about unity, staying active, and giving everyone a chance to shine on the court.”
Who’s It For?
Whether you’re a seasoned baller or just love the game, this league is for you. Teams can have 3 players on the court and up to 2 subs. Play hard, play fair – sportsmanship is key. Defense calls the fouls, and the staff’s call is final. So, lace up and get ready to ball!
