ATTENTION! THIS IS A NEW FORMAT FOR THE 2025/2026 SEASON!
We intend to host tryouts in late October/early November for 3rd - 8th grade girls and boys. Third and fourth graders must also agree to participate in their recreation league to be eligible. We will ideally field one team per grade for each gender. These teams will:
Practice on Sunday monings from November-March. Some teams will have an additional weekday practice.
Participate in Seacoast Basketball League games which are typically held on Sundays from December-mid February.
Participate in a 2-3 tournament postseason predominantly in March. Previous tournaments have included Berwick, Bow, Deerfield, Kittery, Wells, Rochester, and Seabrook. Important! There will NOT be a separate tryout for the tournament season. The Seacoast League team will continue into the tournament season.
The Seacoast Travel League sponsors a Fall (September and October) halfcourt 3x3 league. There will be occasional practices on Sunday mornings and games take place Sunday's from 5pm-8pm at Philips Exeter Academy. Priority will be given to athletes who have a connection to Portsmouth Travel Basketball (has participated on a team before, or attended PTB programming such as Sunday workouts). Teams consist of a maximum of 4 players, so commitment to attending the practices and games are important. Our interest form is open from now through early July by clicking the link to the left. The board will vote on teams and notify players soon after.
There are no current workouts scheduled, but stay tuned for updates!
We provide basketball skills, drills, and games workouts for Portsmouth area youth. Sessions vary, but typically workouts are Sunday mornings at Connie Bean Center. Drop ins are welcome. There is no requirement to be on a Portsmouth Travel Basketball team. Ages start at 1st grade.
