The Bantam League is geared toward young children just being introduced to the sport of basketball. Skills to be taught in this league include dribbling, passing, shooting and defending. In competing with others in the community, kids are able to develop a strong ethic of sportsmanship, learning to compete in a friendly manner. For this league, players use Junior size basketballs and play with the hoop adjusted to a height of 8 feet. Each week during practice, we take time to share biblical principles with the players and encourage them to pursue a life with Christ. Starting this Fall all First Friends Youth Basketball Leagues are part of the Jr. Cavaliers! As part of registration each participant will receive a Cavaliers ticket to a TBD game for the 2011-2012 season . During that game First Friends league participants will have the opportunity to engage in unique Fan Experience programs on the Cavaliers court among many other exciting activities planned for the night. See you at “The Q”!
