The Comets are one of eastern Massachusetts’ premier basketball player development organizations. The program’s aim is to teach girls the skills they need to eventually play on the high school and college
levels. In the fall, the teams will play in weekend tournaments
between September and the first week in November, and practice once
per week.
The season ends before the start of the town team programs.
