Youth Basketball - 6U - Recreational

Did you know that basketball began at the Y? Now, more than 160,000 kids learn the sport at the Y every year. There’s no better place to learn the game of basketball than where it was invented. Kids who play basketball and engage in healthy competition discover so much more than their athletic abilities. We encourage kids to challenge themselves as players and people. Volunteer coaches lead players in drills and games designed to develop the fundamental skills of ball handling, dribbling, passing, shooting and defense.

6U Recreational Basketball (Ages 6-7)
The YMCA’s 6U Basketball program is the first step in the progression of youth basketball, designed to introduce young players to the fundamentals of the game in a fun, supportive environment. Kids will learn key skills such as dribbling, shooting, and basic offense and defense, while building confidence and teamwork.

Through weekly practices and a season of games, players will develop an understanding of the game’s basic rules and enjoy the excitement of basketball in a recreational setting.

Teams practice once per week and participate in a set number of games each season. All teams are coached by dedicated volunteers. Parental involvement is essential to the success of the program, whether it’s through volunteering as a coach, helping on game day, or cheering from the sidelines.
