Youth Basketball League
JCCSF basketball is where fun meets fundamentals. Our coaches teach skills like communication and teamwork that kids can use on and off the court through weekly drill-based practices and games.
The JCCSF Youth Sports Program is redefining the score, changing the athletic experience for youth and their families for the better. We believe youth sports are about more than building skills for competitive play.
Our athletic programs include educational components that teach players to display character and integrity, becoming leaders in their community. Through teamwork, young people learn skills that build confident, resilient and effective individuals who succeed in sports and life.

What are the league divisions?
How are teams formed?
When and where are games played?
Recreation League games are on Saturdays from 8:00 am – 7:00 pm (depending on league size).
Competition League games are on Sundays from 11:00 am – 7:00 pm (depending on league size).
All games are held in the JCCSF Gymnasium.
Will there be practices?
Practices will be held for all JCCSF Basketball Teams once a week Monday – Friday from 2:00 – 7:00 pm.
Practice scheduling is extremely complicated and takes a great deal of flexibility from both JCCSF League Managers and teams.
To utilize early release times and accommodate as many teams as possible in each division, generally younger groups are scheduled earlier in the day, and older groups are scheduled later in the day.
We appreciate team flexibility in providing ALL TIMES they are available to practice at JCCSF, including early dismissal days/times.
