WHAT IF I PLAY A SPRING SPORT?:
It is possible for student-athletes to participate in the NBBA Club/AAU season while playing another spring sport.
However, the NBBA requires the student-athlete to meet the following requirements:
- Select Team (Grades 3 - 7): Student-athletes must attend at least one practice per week and 6 of the 9 tournaments.
- Select Team (Grades 8): Student-athletes must attend at least one practice per week and 6 of the 8 tournaments.
- Club Team (All Grades): Student-athletes must attend at least one practice per week and 4 of the 6 tournaments.
Given the fact the costs for the team remain constant, the dues for the season remain the same.

Practices
All practices are scheduled in advance and players are expected to attend practices. Teams will normally practice twice a week for 90 minutes. Every effort will be made to follow practice schedules as closely as possible, however, things happen. Please be flexible and cooperative when practice schedules need to be changed.
As there are school activities, and other commitments, which may conflict with practice from time to time, coaches will work with players and parents individually in those cases. To emphasize player responsibility, the player (and not the parent) who will miss a practice is expected to notify the coach ahead of time that he will miss practice and the reason why. Program basketball players are expected to commit themselves to a rigorous practice schedule, and their team depends on them to do so. Playing time will be affected by unexcused absences or tardiness.

Grades 3-7: March 11 – May 30 (June 3 – July 17 TBA)
