Winter Basketball Leagues

18 Winter Basketball Leagues & Clinics

The In-Town Basketball League is an organized recreational basketball program for kids currently enrolled in Middle School through High School. The Middle School Leagues are divided up by 5th/6th graders and 7th/8th graders. The High School League is a mix of 9th-12th graders. We will need volunteer coaches for all leagues. If you are available and interested, please be sure to check that section off in the Q&A's. All of our leagues will hold all participants, volunteers, and spectators accountable to our code of conduct for the program. There will be a weekly 1 hour practice for each team during the week and a game on Saturday afternoons. Practice and game times will vary throughout the season and take place at either Clarke or Diamond Middle School. You will receive the specific dates and times of all scheduled practices and games for the league. You will receive the schedules by mid-November. There will be a formation night prior to the start of the official games. The formation night is when the teams will compete against each other to see how balanced they are. After the session, the coaches will discuss to see if any players can be moved around to try to have fair teams for the season. Formation night is scheduled for 11/14 (grades 5/6), 11/16 (grades 7/8), 11/21 (HS).

Winter Basketball Clinics

Winter Basketball Clinics

Come join us to practice and further your basketball skills. The clinics are an instructional program where you will focus on the basic skills of basketball with proper instruction on dribbling, shooting, passing, ball handling techniques, good sportsmanship and teamwork! You will also learn general principles of playing offense and defense, which will be taught and reinforced through instruction, drills, mini games and scrimmages! Volunteer coaches are needed for each program. Please indicate in the Q&A section if you are available to assist with the skills/drills as well coaching/substituting the participants during the scrimmage time. If you are interested in participating in the Smart Start program, please be aware that a parent/guardian will need to be present for the duration of the program for each participant to assist with skills/drills as needed.
