House league/tykes game schedules and rules of play are posted under each division. 

Practice schedule with complete omit dates are posted under 'coaches.'  When new omit dates come up, the coach will be contacted by email.  Any additional dates will also be added to the webpage.

Coaches; if you are interested in any dates that are listed as 'spare,' please let me know.  These dates can be booked on a 1st-come 1st-served basis.  Thank you so much for coaching this season, and I hope it's a great experience for everybody.  UPDATED Nov. 18th:  PLEASE NOTE DOCUMENT UNDER 'COACHES' FOR SPARE GYM SELECTIONS.

ALL COACHES/PLAYERS/PARENTS:  Please read the SBA Rules of Play document under 'coaches.'  These are SBA rules that MUST be followed.  Everybody needs to think of the children first and make positive memories for them... our key goal is to ensure that the kids have lots of fun. 
Coaches:  We want you to base your success on whether or not your players come back to play SBA Basketball year after year... don't base your success on your wins and losses.  They won't remember those, but they will remember the fun they had. 
We must all be positive and make the season an enjoyable one for all players.

Please note that if a gym does not open for you at the time contracted (either on game day or practice day), there is nobody that can be contacted at that time.  SBA does NOT have any keys to any of the schools nor any phone numbers to any caretaker/school hosts that are responsible for opening/closing the doors for us.  However, please forward an email to darbri@shaw.ca if a gym does NOT open for you on a practice or game day and it will be dealt with on the following business day.  Thank you.

Have FUN!!!!

                                           UNIFORM CARE

ALL SBA uniforms should be washed in cold water and hung to dry.  Absolutely, no warm or hot water and they should NOT be put in the dryer.  Thanks for your cooperation.

Note:  At the end of the season, both the uniform top and shorts MUST be returned in order to get the uniform deposit cheque destroyed.  Failure to return full uniform in good condition (clean and undamaged) will result in the cashing of a uniform cheque.

   Parents help required to help SBA keep gyms in our house league, tykes league and the EYBA league:

     -- outdoor shoes MUST be removed at the doors entered (feel free to bring indoor shoes to change into);
     -- absolutely no food or drinks, besides water bottles with water, are allowed in the gym - NO coffee;
     -- ALL children must be supervised, and no children should be in any of the school's hallways for any length of time except
       for quick bathroom breaks);
     -- ALL of SBA rules must be followed as outlined in the fair play form that is posted under 'Coaches.'
     -- if any of the rules outlined are not being followed by a parent, another parent has the right to advise.

We have been very fortunate to have a great parent group that does continue to follow the rules set out by the school boards.  Please continue to comply and we won't have to turn kids away because of gyms lost.

Thanks very much for your cooperation and let's keep those basketballs dribbling!!
