The West Springfield Park & Recreation Department (WSPR) is pleased to offer Recreational Winter Basketball Leagues for children! WSPR Youth Basketball Leagues provide every child with an opportunity to learn the game, improve their basketball skills, and play in semi-competitive games that are safe and FUN! Our programs serve children CURRENTLY IN Grades K-12. WSPR offers two distinct programs:
An Instructional program for boys and girls CURRENTLY ENROLLED IN Kindergarten and Grades 1 & 2 (Leagues 106000-00 to 106000-03). Participating children receive basic basketball FUNdamentals (e.g. dribbling, passing, shooting) with a 1-hour practice/game on Sunday afternoons, beginning January 5th. Please note that there is no weekday commitment for these age groups. Participants are to bring the following items labeled with the child’s name: water bottle and sneakers. Uniforms will consist of a team jersey.
A Semi-Competitive program for boys and girls CURRENTLY IN Grades 3-12 (Leagues 106000-04 to 106000-10). Participating children will be scheduled for 1 practice a weeknight and 1 game on the weekend. Semi-competitive league practices begin the week of December 2nd. Please note that practices are scheduled by volunteer coaches according to the coach’s availability and the availability of the gym. A coach will contact you with more information regarding specific team practice times prior to the start of the season. Participants are to bring the following items labeled with the child’s name: water bottle and sneakers. Uniforms will consist of a team jersey.
If a participant is trying out for a school team, CYO or Suburban basketball team but might be interested in also playing Park & Recreation basketball, please sign up now. If the participant decides not to play, we can always refund your money. It is more difficult to add players after the teams have been drafted than it is to pull a player off of a team.
*Player Eligibility for Boys/Girls Grades 7-12: If a participant makes a High School Varsity or Junior Varsity team before December 31st, that player shall not be eligible for the remainder of the season. Players cannot have played Varsity basketball in their senior year of eligibility.
To avoid being placed on a waitlist, REGISTRATIONS MUST BE RECEIVED BY NOVEMBER 1, 2024. Proof of age and residency is required for new participants.
Financial Assistance for registration fees is available for qualifying West Springfield residents.
