Our basketball programs are designed for players of all abilities who want to have fun, take part in healthy competition, and develop their skills. Players will learn the fundamentals of the game and the importance of teamwork, responsibility, and sportsmanship. Volunteer coaches provide support and encouragement and serve as positive role models for youth.

Our Youth Winter Travel Basketball League is open to all youth ages 5-14 years old. We will offer four different age divisions: Ages (5-7), (8-10), Boys (11-14) and a Brand New All Girls (11-14) Division.

We are now offering a (3-4) Age Division. This division will be an inhouse league and will not travel to other locations.

It’s a great opportunity for your children to compete in a semi-competitive basketball league. This league has averaged anywhere between 16 to 24 total teams.

In our 8-10 and 11-14 age divisions, standings will be kept, and we will have a season ending tournament with awards given to the 1^st and 2^nd place finishers.

Be Part of an organization-wide basketball league that gives members the ultimate basketball league experience. Multiple Organizations will be participating, allowing your children a vast array of competition.

Our league will consist of teams from Duneland YMCA, Valparaiso, South Haven, Portage, and Duneland Boys & Girls Clubs.

At the YMCA, all of our youth sports coaches are volunteers. If you would like to make a positive impact in a young person’s life, please consider volunteering. Contact CJ Peters at [email protected] to volunteer. Participating families will receive $10 off for volunteering their time to coach!

Team placement emails will begin going out after sign-ups end. The email will be sent to the email address on file for the participant to be registered, so please make sure it is up to date.
