Youth Basketball
In the Forest City Y’s youth basketball programs, we strive to instill a love for the sport and a love and competency of the fundamentals needed to effectively play the sport.
As kids get older and progress through our programs, we add layers of teamwork and competition to help give focus to their developing fundamentals.
So, make sure to sign your little ones up and give them the gift of dribbling, shooting, and teamwork!
1st-2nd Grade Youth Basketball
Y staff and volunteer coaches will reinforce the fundamentals of shooting, passing and dribbling. Kids will learn how to play together on a team and how to develop good sportsmanship.
The first 3 weeks will be practices focused on fundamentals followed by 5 weeks of practices on Mondays and Tuesdays and league games on Thursdays. Once games start, practices will only be on Tuesdays.
Participants will receive a YMCA reversible jersey and must bring a pair of clean gym shoes.
