Skill Builders Basketball

November 14, 2022 - February 26, 2023

Skill Builders is The J’s unique approach to youth basketball featuring quality, consistent coaching by knowledgeable coaches; and practices that are run like skill clinics. While individual skill development is stressed in all divisions; there is a greater emphasis on team and game skills beginning in 2nd grade. While participants are encouraged to come to as many practices as possible to gain the maximum skill development, attendance at all practices is not required.

Team Formation – Teams in the Kindergarten through 2nd grade divisions will be limited to 8 players per team and play 4 v 4 games. Beginning with 3rd grade, teams will be limited to 10 players per team and play 5 v 5 games.  While we accept teammate requests, please note that if there is a group of players that want to play together that exceeds the player per team limit of a division, we will split the players up into two teams and then fill out the team with free agents.

Program Features Include:
·        Coed program in Kindergarten
·        Separate boys and girls divisions beginning in 1st Grade
·        Sign up individually, but teammate requests accepted
·        J Staff coaches - no parent coaches
·        Age appropriate equipment
·        Games played on weekends
·        All practices and games take place at The J*

Practice schedule –  Will be announced in Mid October. (*Some older division teams may practice offsite if registration numbers require more gym space.)
