Description
Get ready for your child’s first big basketball experience!
YMCA Preschool Basketball is designed especially for our youngest players to learn, play, and grow in a safe, supportive environment. With age-appropriate equipment and caring coaches, kids build confidence while having fun with friends.
Each week includes:
- 30 minutes of practice to learn the basics — dribbling, passing, teamwork, and shooting.
- 30 minutes of game play right after practice — no travel, no stress. Everything takes place at the Birmingham YMCA.
This league is all about smiles, not scores. Every child gets to play, every family gets to cheer, and every week is a win!
Program Details:
- For ages 4–5 (no previous experience needed)
- Meets once per week at the Birmingham YMCA
- Season starts the week of October 13th
- All practices and games are held at your branch — no travel required
