Youth Winter Basketball League
Our basketball programs are designed for players of all abilities who want to have fun, take part in healthy competition and develop their skills. Players will learn the fundamentals of the game and the importance of teamwork, responsibility and sportsmanship. Volunteer coaches provide support and encouragement and serve as positive role models for youth.
Our Youth Fall Basketball League is open to all youth ages 3-14 years in a fun, skill-based environment. We will offer four different age divisions: Minis (Ages 3-4), Biddys (5-7), Juniors (8-10) and Seniors (11-14). We will be joining with the Portage YMCA for our biddy, junior and senior divisions.
Mini Division: Played in-house on Saturday mornings. Will practice for half-hour and then play game.
Biddy Division: Practices once a week at Duneland YMCA (Monday or Tuesday). Games on Thursdays at Duneland or Portage YMCA.
Junior/Senior Division: Practices once a week (Monday or Tuesday). Games on Saturdays at Duneland or Portage YMCA
At the YMCA, all of our youth sports coaches are volunteers. If you would like to make a positive impact in a young person’s life, please consider volunteering. Contact CJ Peters at [email protected] to volunteer. Participating families will receive $10 off for volunteering their time to coach!
Team placement and any league information emails will begin going out after sign-ups end. The email will be sent to the email address on file for the participant to be registered, so please make sure it is up to date.
