Volunteer Coach - Outdoor Practice Registration
This is the default registration for individual players looking for team placement
(Some coaches may have access to a gym which may include an additional fee for gym practice. If not enough players are available to form an outdoor based squad you may have the option to upgrade to a gym squad registration with open roster spots or your registration may be refunded)
INSTRUCTIONS for players on a Blue Chip preformed team with volunteer coach
(players who have coordinated with a coach)
1st SELECT "VOLUNTEER COACH OUTDOOR PRACTICE" registration
then when going through registration questions
answer yes when asked if you are on a preformed team
and then enter your coach/team name.
This registration fee covers games only
Practice days/times & locations are solely based on the volunteer coach's discretion. Some coaches may hold one 1 hour practice a week and another might schedule 2 or more. Based on weather and court availability you may just have games. If more consistent gym practice is something you are looking for then make sure to select you prefer gym practice option when asked during registration questions.
Historically there have been 12-18 HS Teams and 4-8 team divisions across grades (i.e. 4/5th 6/7th 8/9th)
Teams are not strictly grade based they are placed in and moved to divisions based on overall team skill.
Some JV teams may have 17 & 18 yr olds.
THIS IS NOT PAY TO PLAY
We request coaches give a minimum playing time per player of at least 5 minutes per half, but Coaches have sole discretion on a players playing time. If for some reason you don't like the coach you are assigned to for your season make sure to take note of other coaches during the season and then request to play for them in subsequent seasons.
Or you can volunteer during registration or at anytime HERE
If you/your player wants to play 5v5 full court basketball but:
Needs a guarantee of minimum playing time
Can't handle emotions that come with winning or losing (sometimes by wide margins)
Are not flexible with changing practice schedules due to weather (for outdoor registration) or schools suddenly changing gym availability.
Then Blue Chip 5v5 Leagues are probably not for you, there are plenty of other great programs available like Upward, YMCA, I9 etc etc
THE EVALUATION PROCESS
Individual players looking for teams may be asked to attend a filmed evaluation and coaches looking for players to fill roster slots will draft from our private online draft board.
If a player is not able to be placed on a team then the registration & uniform costs will be refunded. After first game starts there are no refunds for any reason.
