These leagues more closely follow the standard rules of basketball. Each league has rules that are unique to our program and some rules unique to the players’ grade level. The underlying principle is to give players a league environment where game scores and league standings are kept and year end playoffs are offered. The basic league concept is to continue to work to teach fundamental basketball skills, understanding of basketball rules, and concepts of teamwork and sportsmanship at all levels. Generally, each team will have a team practice and game most weeks. The initial practice sessions will be held in a “clinic style format” with concentration on basic basketball fundamentals.
