The Youth Basketball League is for boys and girls entering 1^st – 8^th grades. The league is designed for participants to utilize the fundamental skills of basketball in game situations. A volunteer head coach, who will provide instruction on basketball fundamentals, in a positive and fun environment, will direct each team. In addition to the focus on basketball skills development, the program offers children the opportunity to interact with peers and coaches, learn good sportsmanship, and work as part of a team.

Players will have one practice and scrimmage per week. All practices will be held on Tuesdays & Thursdays. Games will be held on Saturdays.

COVID Update Per Illinois Department of Public Health

For sports played indoors, individuals aged two years and older who can medically tolerate a mask, regardless of vaccination status, must wear a mask and maintain physical distancing to the extent possible. This is in alignment with Executive Order 2021-18, which requires universal indoor masking for youth in public and nonpublic schools serving students from prekindergarten through grade 12 (P-12). Individuals playing sports indoors must wear a mask during training, competition, other active exercise, and during other contacts that do not occur during gameplay, such as on the sideline or bench. Participants may remove their mask while participating in indoor sports when wearing a mask poses an injury risk as described by the American Academy of Pediatrics (see “When should face masks be worn?”).

All spectators, regardless of vaccination status, should wear a mask in attendance at indoor youth sports events. All spectators must wear a mask if the event is held indoors in a public or nonpublic P-12 school setting.
