We have VERY LIMITED Spots left in the league in both
divisions. If you would like to registered, please call Shawn Pudney at 288-5119
asap.
Attention: All Parents - Before registering your player(s) please take a moment to
review the following:
We welcome all of children to our basketball leagues and we are committed to
providing a fun and worthwhile experience for them. In return we must ask the
following:
Commitment: Please give our league and your child’s team the commitment to regularly
attend practices and games. We know other commitments may arise that will conflict
with our schedule. If the numbers of such conflicts are going to be too great- we
suggest that you not over -commit your child.
Specific team requests : We use a player draft to select our teams. Our goal is to
create teams that are fair and balanced and we will not be able to honor requests to
be on a specific team (whether desiring to be with a certain coach or player).
Further, car-pooling and other transportation issues, while important, cannot be
considered.
Team Draft : At these draft sessions our coaching staff gets together to select
their teams in an open draft procedure. The ultimate goal is selection of teams that
are balanced. Each coach has their reason for selecting certain players but
sometimes the players they want to select have already been picked. While possibly
disappointing to a player, we ask that you use this as an opportunity to meet and
make new friends. Trading players from one team to another is not part of our
selection process. If teams start to become unbalanced, Coach Pudney will have the
final decision on reassigning a player to another team for the good of the league.
Practice : Players will be notified by their coaches as soon after the team
selection as possible. Practice will normally begin within a few days of the
contact- so the first practice may be on rather short notice. When the coach calls,
please get their name and phone number as well as the team name and confirm the
date, time and location of practice. This can save all of us on phone calls and will
help ensure your child gets acclimated to the team as quickly as possible. Practices
will continue up until our games begin in December and then will be assigned as
available. In November practices will be held on either Saturday or Sunday at the
Boys & Girls Club of Syracuse (Hamilton Street Unit).
