GRADES K-5
*Due to the cancellation of the last day of the program on Sunday, February 6th because of snow removal operations at all Reading schools, we have scheduled a make-up on SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 20TH. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the Recreation Division at (781) 942-9075.
The Reading Youth Basketball In-Town program is for boys and girls in Grades K-5. In-Town Basketball is strictly recreational and should be approached as such. This program will run for 10 Sundays from November to February. Players will be placed on a team and will receive their own shirt and number! (Please no team/player requests.) All sessions will meet at the designated time below on Sundays.
During the 75-minute sessions each week, teams will practice and play games for a designated portion of time. This may vary from week to week. Hoops will be lowered to 8 feet for the younger divisions and use smaller basketballs.
In this program participants will learn the fundamentals of basketball, with emphasis on skill development. Participants will also participate in weekly basketball games. The league will run for ten (10) Sundays. The Sunday League rules dictate the exact amount of playing time each individual receives. Playing time is based on the number of players per team. We will hold a mandatory coaches meeting prior to the start of the season.
