Introductory Houseleague
Introductory Houseleague is our newest forum and
an enjoyable one in which your child can learn
to play the game at a level that encourages
early success with lower baskets and a
small ball. This early exposure to the game is
a great confidence builder for further play in
the months and years to come.
Players receive 20 minutes of small group
instruction each night in the fundamentals of
ball handling, passing & shooting and then are
introduced to the game gradually through a
25-minute game, with one new rule added each
night as the league progresses and as their
knowledge of the game advances. Our objective
is to teach the fundamental skills and the
game, thus, some rudimentary game drills are
taught in order to ensure fun and to improve
individual and team performance. Each team has
one 45-minute-session each night of the
schedule.
Beginner & Instructional Houseleagues
Beginner Basketball and
Instructional Houseleagues are an excellent way
of continuing your child's involvement in the
great game of basketball in a developmental and
non-threatening, fun-filled environment which
focusses on positive encouragement, equal
playing time (10 players per team) and
teamwork.
Our primary objective is to gain experience in
the game, because the fun is in the
play. Basketball skills are taught and drilled
in order to promote development, success and
fun. Practice and game take place at each
session on two nights per week over the 4-5 week
schedule.
We are aware that young athletes and their
parents are involved in other activities, thus
if enrolment permits, we can prepare the
schedule so that teams play earlier or later
games as long as we are informed before the
schedule is printed. Just enter details in the
"Special Requests" box on the on-line
Registration Page. Flexible scheduling makes it
easier to do two activities on the same evening
and to have full teams on hand.
Occasionally, a league does not register a full
complement of players.If
there are sufficient registrations to form 2
teams, an instructional session can go forward.
This provides the opportunity of playing
experience & instruction for those who want it.
The same number of games are played as would
take place in a Competitive League, but we do
not play for medals.
HOOPS is dedicated to giving everyone a chance
to enjoy playing basketball & to improve their
game. This format fills that need.
Let's get started!
Registration is right here on-line & you pay no
fees until the first night of play.
