If you have a 1st through 3rd Grade child interested in playing basketball against other area players without the hassle of traveling to a different location for every game, this program is for them. Participants will learn fundamental skills through weekly practice and games. Adult volunteers coach all teams.Grade 1 games will have youth size basketballs and eight-foot basketball rims. Grade 2 games will have youth size basketballs and nine-foot basketball rims. Grade 3 games will have youth size basketballs, nine-foot basketball rims, full court play and score will be kept. All games will have staff referees and timekeepers.
All participants will receive a team T-shirt and commemorative basketball.
(1) Teams will be established according to school (Crow Island, Greeley, Hubbard Woods, Sacred Heart, Faith Hope, North Shore Country Day and more); there will be no evaluation. When filling out your registration form please remember to indicate your child’s school—otherwise placement on a particular school team cannot be guaranteed. If there are more than 10 children from a school, multiple teams will be formed. If there are too few children from any one school, children will be placed on a team according to village of residence. Due to the number of children in this program, friend requests will not be taken.
(2) Each team will have a 1-hour practice during the week (Monday & Wednesday) between 4 pm and 8 pm or (Tuesday, Thursday, or Friday) between 5pm and 8pm, with priority given to Grade 1 teams for earlier times. Coaches choose their team’s specific time by lottery in early December. There will be two weeks of practice before the first game.
(3) Games will be held on Saturdays between 10 am and 6 pm. The specific game schedule will be created in early December: typically Grade 1 play between 10 am and Noon, Grade 2 play between Noon and 3 pm, and Grade 3 play between 3 pm and 5 pm.
(4) All team information (roster, practice time, game time, coach, etc.) will be available on or before December 8, 2023, at quickscores.com/wch.
