YOUTH BASKETBALL UPDATE

YOUTH BASKETBALL UPDATE

Most years, we would have already started our youth basketball program by now. However, as we all know, this is a year unlike any other. Earlier this week, the New York State High School Athletic Association announced that the start of high-risk sports such as basketball cannot start practicing until January 4th. Therefore, we will not be able to start youth basketball until January 4th at the earliest.

Unfortunately, we are dealing with various issues in regards to both COVID-19, as well as logistical issues such as not being able to use the schools or the YWCA this year for practices and games. Although, it's unlikely that we will be able to have the complete program that we're used to, we are still very much hoping that we will be able to have some type of program. It will most likely be in clinic form with groups of 10 working on fundamentals and skill-building.

As of now, we're hoping to start January 4th. But nothing is certain as of now. We will continue to be hopeful of having some type of youth basketball program, and we will post any further updates ASAP. We thank you all for your patience and cooperation!
