All teams will practice at Buchanan High School on Tuesdays & Thursdays, March 20-May12 (minus spring break week).

Your team will either practice at 6:30-8:00 PM, or 7:30-9:00 PM.

All our teams will start playing games in March. Teams will play a couple of games on Saturdays on some weekends, while playing Friday, Saturday and potentially Sunday for the three-day tournaments. We will provide information on which weekends are which once we get the teams officially together. The spring season wraps up at the end of May, although we might go on a road trip as a full club the first weekend in June.

There is a summer/fall session (ends just before school starts) that most our players also participates in, which runs through the end of June-October (we work around summer vacations and camps). We use the summer/fall to continue to develop players and get them in basketball condition for school ball.
