Boys' Jr High

Grades 7 - 8


The FFC Jr. High League is designed for older boys who have had some experience playing basketball and are looking for fun and fellowship at the community level. This league is geared toward developing teamwork skills in addition to individual playing skills. For this league, intermediate basketballs (28.5) are used, and the hoop is raised to 10 feet. 20 minutes before each Saturday game, we take time to share biblical principles with the players and encourage them to pursue a life with Christ in our huddle time. Players and coaches are also encouraged to memorize scripture verses weekly. This is all part of our Championship Series Points (CSP) system, which determines the league champions. This league runs from January to March each year. Note: According to OHSAA regulations, boys participating on school teams may not play in First Friends Leagues.
