Youth Basketball K-2 League

Wilson Basketball on Wooden Court

For those in grades K-2, this is a Saturday-only program held at Smith Voke from December through February. We offer divisions in Kindergarten (coed), Boys Grades 1&2 and Girls Grades 1&2. Registered participants will be divided into teams within their division. There are no evaluations for this league. Participants will work on drills and play games with their team to prepare for scrimmages against their peers later in the season. Participants will receive a team t-shirt at the beginning of the season that they should wear to each session. A Junior size (27.5") basketball is used in this league.
