MASKS WILL BE REQUIRED FOR ALL SPECTATORS AT ALL TIMES WHILE ATTENDING GAMES.  NO EXCEPTIONS.
  

Who can play? The league is open to girls and boys grades K – 12. All teams are co-ed (girls and boys playing on same team). Unfortunately we never have enough girls to register to have girls-only teams.
 

Fee: Cost is $185 for early registration (October 1st – October 24th) and $210 for regular registration (October 25th – November 7th). We offer a $25 sibling discount.

 

Registration could close prior to November 7th once a division has maxed out, so register early.

MANDATORY Evaluation:  Saturday, November 6th: 9:00am – 9:45am (Last name A – M) 9:45am – 10:30a (Last name N – Z) OR Tuesday, November 9th: 6:00pm – 6:30pm (Last Name A – M) 6:30pm – 7:00pm (Last name N – Z)
May attend either date.
 

Player evaluation is MANDATORY for all registered players. If a registered player does NOT attend the mandatory evaluation, their spot will be taken by a player that either walks up to register or on the waiting list. The registration fee will be refunded but a $50 cancellation fee will be withheld.

 

Team rosters will be limited to a first come first serve basis and space is limited due to gym availability for practices and games. Therefore, online registration is encouraged. REGISTER EARLY!

 

 

Practices & Games: All games and practices are held at The Gym (2325 Atascocita Road, Humble, TX 77396 – across the street from Lindsey Lyons Park)

 

Practices: Practices will begin the week of November 30th. Each team will get two practices prior to the first game which is on Saturday, December 11, 2021. After the first game, each team will then have one – one hour practice during the week on either a Tuesday OR Friday, depending upon which team they are on. The ABA practice times are from 6pm – 10pm with each team practicing one hour. The younger teams will practice first then the older divisions come later. There will NOT be any practices the weeks of December 20th – January 3rd in recognition of the Christmas / New Years Holiday.

 

Games: One (1) hour game (between hours of 8am – 3pm) played on Saturdays, beginning December 12th. The younger teams will have the early games first then the older divisions come later. No games on Saturdays December 25th & January 1st. Games will resume on Saturday, January 8th.

For example, if one team has eight players and one team has six players, the team with six players will shoot two extra free throws.
