UNIFORMS & EQUIPMENT - BASKETBALL

What is supplied and what the player must supply / Where to buy equipment

What is supplied and what the player must supply:

The league provides each coach with

Jerseys for each player
basketballs - at the gyms.

Clinic uses 27" balls (circumference)

Girl's Divisions and all Coed Divisions from ages 8 through 11 use intermediate sized game balls - 28.5"  (The WNBA uses this sized ball.)

All Co-ed Divisions 12 and older (Juniors and old) use the full or regulation sized game ball - 30" 

Players should NOT bring basketballs to the gyms, we supply plenty.  Too many balls in the gym makes it too difficult to control the practices, games, and fans.

Players should wear sneakers and dark shorts without pockets to practices and games.  Be sure to wear sneakers to the evaluation.

Jersey Problems:  The coach should inform the divisional director if there are any problems regarding the team jerseys.  Replacement of lost or damaged jerseys will require a special order that must be placed with Sport Prospect (768-1328) and must be paid for by the player.  It usually takes about two weeks to receive after the order.
