HYL Divisions

The Hooptown Youth League offers two divisions for players to choose from: Recreational and Competitive.

Recreational:

For players at any skill level who want to play for fun, including beginners. The only division for K - 2nd grade.

Recreational teams practice 1 time a week for an hour and have 1 game a week on Saturdays. K-2nd grade teams are guaranteed 6 regular season games. 3rd grade recreational teams are guaranteed 7 regular season games including the end of the year Final Four tournament.

Competitive:

For the player that has prior team basketball experience, knows the rules, has strong skills for their grade level and desires to play in a competitive league and in tournaments.

All players who register for the competitive division are suggested to attend their local Skills Clinic. There, HS coaches and HYL staff will help players and families determine if they should participate in the recreational or competitive division. 

Competitive teams practice 2 times a week for an hour and a half and have 1 game a week on Saturdays. All competitive teams are guaranteed 10 regular season games including the end of year Final Four tournament.
