Grades 3-5 Basketball Program 2020-21

league details

OUR 13th SEASON
The Mission 5 & 2 Basketball League values the positive impact team sports can have in kids' lives more so than the competitive nature of the game. While competition is a natural by-product of league play, we invite teams to play who focus on sportsmanship and education more than wins and losses.

Mission 5 & 2 is a SCHOOL TEAM League. We only accept team registrations whose players all go to the same same or up to two schools. All coaches must also submit Criminal Background Check and Child Abuse Clearance.

COVID-19 GUIDELINES:
All players and coaches need to feel comfortable with all guidelines in order to play; notably that we cannot allow spectators in any facility and players must wear masks at all times, even when they are playing. Anyone in the gym can take mask breaks if they distance themselves from everyone else. Each team must also have 1 Safety Manager at each game to monitor kids on the bench while the coaches are busy coaching.

HOW DO I SIGN UP?
Players: You need an invitation from a coach.
Coaches: If all of the above info sounds good to you, please be sure you have exactly 10 kids committed to play (no more and no less) and then start your Team Registration by clicking the appropriate division below. You will register your child and your team all in one transaction. You will then get a team code to send to your other players so they can register and pay for their child(ren).
