Youth Basketball
Our Youth Basketball league is a seasonal ministry that occurs each winter for kids in grades 1-6. It is typically broken up into three divisions: grades 1-2, 3-4, 5-6. Our intention is for this to be a welcoming and instructional league for children of all skill levels. The league begins with a skills assessment in mid November (see dates below) and progresses through early March, concluding with a tournament for the older two divisions!
Please read all the details below (or checking them out on a PDF version of our print flyer by clicking here) before registering your child/children.
When you are ready to register you can CLICK THIS LINK to head over to our registration website. If you have used our registration system before, use the “Login” button there since your child/children are already in our system. If you are new to our league, use the “Register” button.
If you have any questions, please contact our league director Matt Mason (matt.mason@salemfirstfriends.org).
