Our Recreation Basketball League is designed for players of all abilities, with the focus on fun, skill-building, and community. Each player will learn the game, develop as a teammate, and enjoy the excitement of playing in a fair and positive environment.

League Highlights:
  • Equal Playing Time: Every player gets the chance to participate and grow.
  • Balanced Teams: Teams are created to ensure fair, competitive, and enjoyable games. (Friend requests are not permitted.)
  • Skill Development: Weekly practices and game play build basketball fundamentals, teamwork, and confidence.
  • Sportsmanship & Community: We emphasize respect, camaraderie, and having fun: on and off the court.
League Structure:
  • Games: Saturdays, 1 hour between 8:00 AM–2:00 PM (younger groups play earlier).
    • Due to limited gym space, exact timing for games cannot be released until teams are made and final participant numbers are known.  Schedules will be distributed prior to the start of the season.
  • Practices: 1 weekday evening per week (Mon–Thurs, 6:30–8:00 PM, 45 minutes).
  • Teams: 8–10 players, grouped by grade and skill level.
  • Coaches: Volunteer coaches focus on skill development, teamwork, and fun.
  • Officials: Winchester High School students serve as referees, gaining leadership experience while ensuring fair play.
