How “K-6th Basketball” Works
Recreation Basketball is a program for all the kids from K
through 6th grades where they learn basketball and play in games in
a fun environment. There are rules such as equal playing time,
no pressing, man to man defense only and other rules that allow
the kids to have fun while competing in games. It is separated
by grade and gender. King Philip High School Varsity Basketball
Coach Sean McInnis
The program is designed to build skills, teamwork and have a
lot of fun. It also allows kids to meet each other where they
normally would not get to know other kids from their community.
Many children fall in love with the game and develop their
skills and move onto Travel
Basketball while other just like to have fun and play with their
friends through their school years. Either way, the goal is to
teach the game to the kids by skilled coaches as they develop
excellent basketball fundamentals.
 For K-2 kids, the baskets are lowered to 8 feet and there is
a junior size ball. The teams are made up each week after some
skills and drills by trained coaches and they play scrimmages. This occurs once a
week on Saturday mornings and the cost for the season is $119. This
includes a ball, uniform and private coaches who are
just great with kids while teaching the fundamentals of the
game. Click here to sign up.
For
3rd & 4th Grades, the baskets are 10 feet and a 28.5
ball is used. Teams are made up and split evenly among the kids
and games are played on Saturdays. There is one a week for
30-40 minutes
on Thursdays @ KP Middle School for 3rd and 4th Grade Girls and
3rd and 4th Grade Boys. The season runs from the first weekend in
December until the first weekend in February. The cost is $145
for the season. Click here to sign

For 5th & 6th Grades, the baskets are 10 feet and a
regulations sized ball is used. Teams are made up and split
