HFL BIL is a recreational basketball league sponsored by HFL Community Programs. Our focus is on learning the basics while having fun and getting exercise with a bunch of friends! If you are new to basketball or want to play in a league that is not a big time commitment and is non-competitive, BIL is the league for you!
Teams: BIL offers combined teams for Grades 3/4, 5/6, 7/8, and 9-12. New for 2025/2026, we will be trialing a separate Girls league for Grades 3/4. If there are enough girls for the other Grades, we can look at a separate Girls league for them as well. For any Grades, if there are less than 20 players we may not be able to proceed.
Season: There will be one or two practices OR games per week from January through mid-March. Games and practices will be held in the gymnasium at Lima Primary, Manor School, or the Middle School, and are typically Monday through Friday.
