Playmakers Basketball League
2nd Grade – 5th Grade
Playmakers is The J’s spring youth basketball program designed for players ready for a slightly faster pace and more structured play. Practices still emphasize skill development, but there is a greater focus on team concepts and game play, helping players take the next step beyond beginner-level basketball.
Team Formation – Teams will be limited to 10 players per team and play 5 v 5 games except for 3v3 weekends. 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 teams with free agents if necessary.
