WINTER IS COMING.

We focus on helping our children improve as basketball players and young Catholics.

  • Our goal is to advocate high standards of sportsmanship and fair play, and embrace a sense of teamwork.

  • We build, develop, and improve basketball basketball technique. All teams are coached by parent volunteers.

  • K/1st Little Dribblers program is 6 weeks of 45min skills stations on Saturday mornings from 8:30-9:15am in January and February.

  • 2nd & 3rd grade are Developmental Clinics: where all games/practices on Saturday morning at St. Andrew School.

  • 4th-12th grade divisions are Competitive: where teams travel to area schools for away games.

  • Season is from November to March, except for 4th grade Parish League and younger, which is a shorter season.

  • 4th-12th Parish League: Players will be placed on evenly matched teams of 10-12 players where playing time is guaranteed and is divided as equally as possible. Practices/games may not be made up due to inclement weather.

  • 5th-8th Region League: Players will be placed on team of 10-12 players based on evaluation sessions. Playing time is neither guaranteed, nor equal. Practices and games will be made up due to inclement weather. 

  • High School Girls League is 10 weeks of pick up games on Sunday nights from 8:00-9:00pm at St. Andrew Gym. No practices just come out and play the game you love each week.

  • Practices are one to two nights a week at various area schools.

  • All preseason, holiday, and end-of-season tournament fees are additional and must be paid for by teams who wish to participate.

  • Reversible uniforms are provided, but must be returned at the end of the season.

All players trying out for the Region (JV and Varsity) team MUST attend at least one evaluation. There are no exceptions. You are encouraged to attend all evaluations for a better assessment of players.
Evaluations will be held in early November. The schedule will be announced at a later date.
Region and Parish Evaluations are held separately. Those players only interested in participating in our Parish League should NOT attend Region Evaluations.

Players who attend region evaluations - but are not placed on the region team - should attend at least one parish evaluation. This allows parish coaches the ability to place them appropriately.
