Winter Athletics

Basketball

6th-8th Grade | Boys and Girls (one team each per grade/gender)

Basketball tryouts are typically held in late November. The team size is limited to 12-15  players (more at coach's discretion). Teams usually practice 1-2 times a week, and play one game per week during regular season, which lasts from the first week of January to mid-March. The Marin Youth Basketball League is administered by coaches from cooperating schools. Playoffs and championships are held at the end of the season. If more players sign up at a given grade level than can be accommodated on one team, a competitive tryout may be necessary.
