Basketball instills self-discipline and an awareness of the value of preparation. Hoop it up with our boys third/fourth-grade basketball league. The emphasis of this league is learning the fundamentals of the game through a one-hour practice during weeknight evenings – the practice time and day will be chosen by the coach. Players will also continue to develop during a gamelike setting that will take place on Saturdays. Scrimmages are monitored by a court supervisor, and coaches are allowed on the floor to increase instructional ability.
- Practices: Scheduled to begin the week of Jan. 24.
- Games: Teams will play six games, all on Saturdays. Scores and standings are not kept, and trophies are not distributed for these leagues. Games will begin Feb. 5 through March 19.
- Team rosters: Players will be placed randomly by a computer-generated program based on grades and then birthdates. The only requests that can be made are carpooling where both parents make the same request; otherwise, it will not be granted.
- Uniforms: The black and white SELCRA reversible jersey is required for participation. Please come to the SELCRA office to purchase the jersey for $15.
- Additional information: Returning participants may use last season's jersey. Parent volunteer coaches are needed!
