About This Activity
Description
Dribble, shoot, score! Learn the basics of the game of basketball and practice teamwork and good sportsmanship in this basketball learning league! Teams will be based on schools and ages, and requests will NOT be honored. This is a basic skills league for beginners to learn the concept of the game, and to build on skills previously learned while adding to their basketball knowledge. Scores will not be kept in either division. Referees will be used; however, they will call games loosely. We rely SOLELY on volunteer coaches for these teams, so please consider being a part of your child’s experience! A coaches meeting will be held Wednesday, January 7th at 6pm at the Bettendorf Community Center.
Program Shirts: Bettendorf Parks & Rec Jersey is required and may be added to your cart during registration. The jersey is a reversible, two-color mesh that may be used for all Bettendorf Parks and Recreation programs. Cost is $25.
This is a 9-week league that meets on Saturdays, starting January 10 through March 7. Teams will meet at either 10:15am OR 11:30am each Saturday. Teams' schedules will fluctuate weekly so be sure to block off both times in your calendar. The first three weeks will be one-hour practices, and the last six weeks will be 20-min practices followed by 40-min games. Once teams are assigned, your coach will let you know what time to attend each week.
**Additional registrations will be accepted depending on team availability. As more players are added to the waitlist, league staff will be in touch if there are enough players on the waitlist to create additional teams. If the league is shown as full, please add your name to the waitlist for the best chance to play.
Add $10.00 late fee beginning Dec 25th.
