We highly encourage all parents to participate in coaching. The Recreational leagues run on volunteer parent coaches so it is important you help us in any way you can.

Coaching is a great way to spend time with your kids and they really enjoy it! You don’t have to be an expert in basketball. Basketball is a game that they will play for the rest of their lives. As coaches, we just need to make sure the kids have fun and keep them enthusiastic about the game

We have practice plans, emails, and videos to assist all coaches.

The coaches’ meeting is a mandatory meeting for anyone who wants to coach or coordinate in our league this year. It will also be an informational meeting to learn more about our program.

NYBA board will assign recreational league teams so as to keep it as fair and balanced as possible.

We will coordinate a coaching clinic with our high school coaches and travel coaches for younger grades.
