What
Equipment Do Players Need?
(top)
The organization will provide each player with a ball and
uniform (varies from house league to rep). It is the
player's responsibility to bring these items as well as
proper gym attire (shorts, sweats, shoes, socks, etc.),
water bottles and any other "necessary" items
(asthma inhalers, knee/ankle braces).
What is the Difference Between Rep
(Power) and House League?
(top)
Both branches of the PYBA are interested in getting the
youth of Peterborough playing basketball, however there
will be some differences between Rep and House League.
First, Rep will have more emphasis on competition. It is
the policy of the organization that playing time will be
distributed fairly among all of the players. However, if a
player is looking for "equal" playing time they
should consider the House League. Second, the Rep teams
will be traveling and everyone involved should be prepared
for this. House League will always take place here in
Peterborough.
How Long is the House League Season?
(top)
House league season starts in September and ends
mid-December (depending on the division). This league
focuses on skill development, equal playing time and fun!
Players receive 1 hour practice one night/week and games
are either Saturday or Sunday. See our house
league link for more information.
How Long is the Rep Season?
(top)
Tryouts start in Sept. and teams will decide exactly when
they will start practicing and playing. The end date for
the rep season depends on the age and gender of the
participant.
