Description
We're sorry, but this activity is over. The last meeting was Monday, November 17, 2025.
Get ready for your child’s first big basketball experience!
YMCA Preschool Basketball is designed especially for our youngest players to learn, play, and grow in a safe, supportive environment. With age-appropriate equipment and caring coaches, kids build confidence while having fun with friends.
Each week includes:
- 30 minutes of practice to learn the basics — dribbling, passing, teamwork, and shooting.
- 30 minutes of game play right after practice — no travel, no stress. Everything takes place at your local YMCA.
This league is all about smiles, not scores. Every child gets to play, every family gets to cheer, and every week is a win!
Program Details:
- For ages 4–5 (no previous experience needed)
- Meets once per week at your home YMCA branch
- Season starts the week of October 13th
- All practices and games are held at your branch — no travel required
Volunteer Coaches NeededHelp preschoolers take their first steps in sports! No coaching experience required — just enthusiasm, patience, and a desire to create a fun, positive team experience. Click “Yes, I’m interested in Coaching” to get started.
Come grow, play, and celebrate the Y way — with caring, honesty, respect, responsibility, and inclusion at the heart of every pass, dribble, and cheer!
