The “Falling Leaves” program is designed to give children the opportunity to enjoy the game of basketball. This is an abbreviated league, shorter than our winter program, without scheduled practice nights, but just as fun! Our goal is to teach each player about the game and provide them with equal amounts of playing time! Coaches are volunteers who have varied levels of basketball knowledge. Parents interested in coaching should contact Jake Hutton.

Are you ready for some football? A Sunday morning party! This co-ed program features six weeks of non-contact play in a six-versus-six format. The league will be set up into two divisions, Tiny-Mite and Jr. Pee Wee. The divisions and teams will be set based on ability and will be determined at our combine. The league is open to kindergarten through sixth grade.
Tiny-Mite Division (Beginner):
Children will spend more time working on the fundamentals of the game. This division will take 15 minutes to learn the basic concepts of the game and working fundamentals such as passing, catching, running, and defending. Each player will be equally involved in the game. 40 minutes will be spent in a game setting with coaches and a referee. Ages five to seven years old.
Jr. Pee Wee Division (Intermediate):
Prior to each game, each team will spend 10-15 minutes on skills and drills. The game will consist of two 20-minute halves. In this division, we will dive deeper into the rules of the game. Each player will be equally involved in the game. Ages six and up (based on skill level).
Dates: Sundays, September 22 – October 27
Combine: Saturday, September 14, 1-2 p.m.

Seasonal Youth Recreational Programs include Parents Night Out, Crazy Relays, Youth Boot Camp, Youth Boxing Boot Camp, sports clinics, one-day tournaments, and more.
Youth Recreational Leagues vary seasonally. Leagues run for basketball, flag football, and indoor lacrosse. Basketball Leagues span about an 8-week period for each league, with four separate leagues offered throughout the year. We also offer a basketball league for individuals with special needs, “Shooting Stars” in the first quarter of each year.
Our gymnasium houses a 72-foot long enclosed baseball batting tunnel. Rental times are limited to weekend mornings between 7:00 and 9:00 AM, and rental schedules should be arranged by team coaches with our Recreation Manager. While players are batting, coaches can utilize the remainder of the area to work on infield play, pitching and other fundamentals.
