The primary objective of the Association will be to provide a co-ed in-town recreational basketball program and competitive travel basketball program for the youth of Blackstone and Millville, under the direction of the Association’s Board Officers and Directors. Fostering, encouraging or engaging in athletic exercises or fostering national or international amateur sports competition or any other charitable purpose permitted to be carried on by a corporation exempt from Federal income tax under section 501 (c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code or the corresponding provision or any future United States Internal Revenue Law.
“To develop fundamentally strong basketball players with a focus on the basics of Basketball through teamwork and fair play.”
In-town mission statement notes: Using spirited practices and competitive games the in-town Program players will receive instruction and guidance to achieve a greater understanding and passion for the sport of basketball. All games and practices are designed to allow the participants an equal chance to participate, to receive instruction and better enhance their skills, as well as have fun while playing basketball. The emphasis of the in-town basketball program is for all kids to play regardless of their skill level.
“To develop passionate, intelligent, competitive, spirited, team oriented basketball players.”
Travel program mission statement notes: The Blackstone Travel Program is intended to teach the game of basketball with a level of commitment above that of the In-town Program. This program offers more practice, greater focus, and faster paced games with surrounding towns. The emphasis of the program is to provide an opportunity to compete at a higher level as a preparation for their future playing years. Our program provides the child with life lessons that demonstrate the importance of teamwork, group strategy and healthy values necessary to achieve difficult tasks. Though the amount of playing time is not predetermined, all children get the opportunity to play based on effort and team need. All children will see playing time in every game played.
