All teams ages 6 and up have been released. 4 & 5 year old clinics will be released by Friday 18 November. Practices for all teams 8 and up have begun. Basketball for ages 4-7 will begin early December.
When are evaluations?
Below is information regarding our Community Evaluations. Please note the alternate time for each age group. We would like players to attend their primary time, but have created the alternate times if there are conflicts due to being out of town, sick, etc. Gym space is limited so please do not attend the alternate time in order to avoid conflict with fall sport practice times. We do not want an extraordinary number of players showing up during the alternate time slot.
Are evaluations required?
Although we do not require evaluations, they help us to ensure teams are balanced. One big reason to attend evaluations is for buddy & coach requests. Although we try to honor as many buddy & coach requests as possible, this year to encourage eval participation, we will give preference to requests for players who attend evals. If there is a popular coach, the players who attend evals are more likely to have their coach request honored.
What if my child attends a County tryout for BAYS but is not selected for County?
No need to attend Community evals. We will use the information from the County tryout for the purpose of setting rosters in Community. Of course they are welcome to attend if they want, but the County evaluation will be sufficient.
How long will evals take?
We have an hour and fifteen minutes for each age group but your child likely won't be there the whole time. For Community we will have stations set up for dribbling, layups, shooting, and 3-on-3. Once they go through each station, they are free to leave.
When will teams be formed?
We are hoping to have teams formed within a week after evals conclude. Coaches will reach out to parents for their team. Practices should be able to start mid to late November, with games beginning in December. If there are divisions with 8 or more teams, we are planning to split teams into 2 divisions.
Do you need help during evaluations?
YES! We will be leaning on anyone signed up to coach to help during evals. If you are interested in coaching or would just like to help during evaluations, please contact Jerry Kent (
[email protected]).
Any questions let us know. We look forward to seeing you on the courts!
Evaluation Schedule
Finished for 2022-23 Season
Community - This is our in house community league where there will be one practice during the week and one game on the weekends for boys and girls ages 8-13, broken out into 2 year age groups. This league is designed to play other kids in the BAYS program, not other teams in the county. We will do our best to honor buddy requests in these age groups, but may not always be able to. Evaluations for teams in this league will be held in late October.
Practices: Teams will have a minimum of one, 60 minute practice during the week and will start no later than the week of 7 November. Optional weekend time will be available starting in January for those coaches that wish to have an extra practice. Practices will be held at one of the schools located on the Broadneck Peninsula.
Info: All Players will be given a jersey to keep. All Players will be encouraged to play all positions and afforded equal playing time.
Open Gyms: None at this point
Fees: $125
The age bracket your child will play in is based on their age as of September 1st!
