8U Basketball
This 3-on-3 basketball league is designed to develop and instruct 6 - 10 year olds on the fundamentals of basketball. The purpose of this league is to provide an enjoyable recreational, yet competitive, experience for our participants. The 3-on-3 format is fun, fast-paced and beneficial for the individual development of players as it offers more opportunities for players to shoot/pass/dribble/defend.
