Youth Basketball League

Youth Basketball League

Our basketball programs are designed for players of all abilities who want to have fun, take part in healthy competition and develop their skills. Players will learn the fundamentals of the game and the importance of teamwork, responsibility, and sportsmanship. Volunteer coaches support and encourage and serve as positive role models for youth.

Leagues are offered in the winter for kindergarten through 8th-grade students with the option to form a new team or join an existing one. Leagues feature a 6-game or 12-game season on Saturdays and one practice per week. Kindergarten Basketball will feature two 6-week sessions split into three practices and three scrimmages against other teams or one 12-week session. Iowa High School league who doesn’t play on their school’s team may choose to compete in our Iowa Wolves Metro League. Financial assistance is available to make the program accessible to all.

New in 2023-24, we are asking participants to identify their perceived division level to allow us to build the rosters and schedules to ensure the best experience for all participants. Advanced teams will be matched with advanced teams. Beginner teams will be matched with beginner teams.

Beginner League: A fun league for those with little experience playing organized basketball and looking to learn the fundamentals of basketball. Players that belong to a team and have a coach AND individuals that want to be placed on a random team may sign up for this division.

Intermediate-Advanced League: Players are familiar with basketball and/or have previously played in other organized leagues. Players that belong to a team and have a coach AND individuals that want to be placed on a random team may sign up for this division.
**If a division has less than four teams sign up, we will combine the Advanced and Beginner divisions. We will still match up advanced teams with advanced teams and beginner teams with beginner teams.

1st season update: Practice begins the week of October 23rd. Rosters will be sent by the end of the week of October 15th.
