Boys and Girls Basketball Grades 5-8
REGISTRATION OPENS AUGUST 1st
Late Registration Does Not Guarantee a Spot On a Team.
Evaluations to be held with assistance from high school coaches.
5th-8th graders are evaluated and teams are split by ability.
No team or coach requests will be honored.
• Regular season begins in late November and concludes with post-season tournaments in early March. Competitive teams may play 25 to 30 games. Recreational teams may play 16 to 21 games. Fifth through eighth grade teams can play up to three paid tournaments in addition to the league tournaments.
• Practice times will be announced for each team once all registrations have been returned.
• Fees include the costs for the league, officials, and assist with fees for tournaments.
• Basketball uniforms are to be purchased separately from an outside vendor. The uniform fee will be paid directly to the outside vendor. More information to follow.
• Volunteers are needed to help coach, run the scoreboard, take admission for home games, and work the concession area. All parents are required to participate as a volunteer in the program.
• We believe it is important not only to be competitive and learn high level skills, but also to demonstrate our faith through prayer, great sportsmanship, cooperation, teamwork and hard work.
IMPORTANT: Due to the passage of LB260, the Nebraska Concussion Awareness Act, we are required to provide you with the Parent/Athlete Concussion Information Sheet (link below). Please read it and review it with the athlete prior to registering. As part of the registration process you and the athlete you are registering will be required to acknowledge receipt of this information.
More information is also available at the Nebraska Sports Concussion Network.
