Accepted Answer

Parents must get their players to and from practices, games, and tournaments on time.  In addition, parents may be expected to devote some time to fund-raising activities as needed throughout the season. Parents are also responsible to uphold our league’s standard code of conduct. Additional information on this will be shared prior to our first games.

Question 9

What are the playing time expectations?

Accepted Answer

Playing time is determined by each coach and it will not be equal for every player, nor will it be equal for every game.  Our coaching philosophy is our players need to be playing in game situations to continue to develop and our coaches will manage rosters accordingly.

Question 10

Can players play other sports during the BGSB season?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We recognize that players of this age are frequently involved with other sports or activities and encourage the development of well-rounded athletes.   During January to March we ask that players prioritize basketball over other sports and activities.  Players who miss practices and/or games (at all times during the year) may see their playing time decrease in subsequent games.
