ABC's youth recreational basketball program is open to boys and girls ages 5 through 14.
How Can I Play?
Sign-up sessions for the 2012 basketball season (January through early March 2012) have already been held.
However, late registrations are being accepted on an
"as space available" basis. Go to the
Contact ABC page and send
player name, date of birth, name of parent or guardian, and best contact phone number.
We do all we can to place everyone on a team, but we cannot make an absolute guarantee of team placement.
Age Divisions
Age levels for Youth League basketball teams are 9 through 14. Younger players (those with birth dates from January 2003 through December 2006) are eligible to participate in ABC's Training League program.
See the basketball age chart for the specific age division assignment based on date of birth. Players MUST be at least 5 years old BEFORE January 1, 2012 (i.e. date of birth PRIOR to January 1, 2007). Those with a date of birth before January 1, 1997 are too old to play in our basketball program.
What is the cost?
There is no initial cost to register as an individual player at ABC. Players pay their share of the team fee when placed on a team. Team registration fees are:
$300 - Training League teams (Pee Wee 1 and Pee Wee 2) – 10 game season
$550 - Youth League (ages 9 through 14) – 10 game season
2012 Season / Schedule
The 2012 season will begin in early January and continue into early March. Games are typically played on Monday, Tuesday, and Friday evenings beginning at 6:00 pm, all day on Saturdays, and on Sunday afternoons into early evening.
All of ABC's basketball teams (youth league and training league) play a 10 game season.
