Discover the City of Rialto basketball experience that goes beyond the ordinary! Our youth basketball initiative isn’t just another recreational league; it's an energetic platform designed to inspire kids through physical activity and personal growth in a safe, structured, and exhilarating environment. We champion core values like teamwork, sportsmanship, fairness, and equality, encouraging every young athlete to shine and reach their full potential.
Teams are created to ensure fair play, with players assigned randomly based on skill levels. While we don't accept special team requests, families with siblings in the same age group can register them together for convenience. Just provide their details during registration. All participants must submit a birth certificate copy, which you can scan and email to Recreation@rialtoca.gov.
