ATTLEBORO, MA — The North Attleboro Parks and Recreation Department is looking to develop the next generation of basketball stars as registration opens for its eight-week winter basketball program.
The program welcomes players from prekindergarten through eighth grade, giving young athletes a chance to sharpen their skills, build confidence and enjoy some friendly competition.
For children in prekindergarten through second grade, sessions will be held Saturday mornings and feature drills and mini-games designed to introduce players to the fundamentals of basketball.
Players in grades three through eight will follow a different schedule, with one practice per week and games every Saturday. Practices will be held at Amvet, Community, Martin or North Attleborough Middle School, beginning at 6, 7 or 8 p.m.
The season will run from Dec. 12 through Feb. 13, with no games scheduled for Dec. 26 or Jan. 2.
Families looking to get their young athletes on the court must register by Nov. 14.
Registration is available online.
