Registration is officially opening for students in Kindergarten through 6th Grade!

The season runs from September through mid-December (wrapping up right before Christmas). We understand that several players participate in fall sports; please note that fall sports take priority over this league until those seasons conclude.

Season Details:

  • Practices: Held weekday evenings between 6:00 PM and 8:30 PM (20+ practices anticipated throughout the season).

  • Games: 20+ games across multiple local leagues.

  • Locations: Games will be held in Johnston City gyms, as well as West Frankfort and Harrisburg (hosted by the Harrisburg Youth League).

  • Halftime Showcase: Youth teams will get to showcase their skills during halftime at every home High School Boys Basketball game (2–4 teams per night)!

Following the rec season, players can also look forward to Travel Tribe opportunities.
