If you are searching for a fun way to get your kids active during the winter months, the YMCA’s Youth Basketball league begins in January. The registration deadline is January 6 for the league, which will take place on Saturday mornings at the Versailles Y.
Kids who participate in youth basketball at the Y are able to develop a variety of skills, from catching and dribbling to teamwork and sportsmanship. Just as important, they learn firsthand the benefits of being healthy and active—and that virtual games just can’t compare to the real thing.
The basketball league will be at the Versailles Branch.
There will be teams in two age groups, ages 4-6 and ages 7-10.
Pre-season for the 7-10 age group is Jan. 7 at 9:00 AM. (No pre-season for the 4-6 age group.) Practices are January 14 and 21. Games are January 28 through March 4.
The league is $25 for Members and $50 for Potential Members. All participants will receive a t-shirt.
Volunteer coaches are crucial to the league’s success. Anyone interested in coaching should come to the meeting for volunteer coaches on January 10, at 6:00 PM in Versailles.
Questions may be directed to Tyler Roberts, at troberts@ymcadarkecounty.org or 548-3777.
