• Practices  typically begin mid October and are two nights per week for an hour and a half each. The season wraps up the first or second weekend in March depending on how far teams go in the yearend tournament.   

2. Where are practices held?

• All Northmont Elementary schools are used for practice. We are currently working with local churches to secure gym space as well.

3. When do games start?

• Games start the first weekend in December. The season runs through late February and the yearend tournament can run through the second weekend in March.  

4. Where are games played?

• Elite teams are part of Dayton Metro Winter league. Approximately half our games are at home at Northmont Middle School and half on the road throughout the greater Dayton area. The furthest we have typically ever had to travel was Lebanon or Graham for a game or two.

5. When are games played?

• Games are typically on weekends, you could have multiple games in a weekend on both Saturday and Sunday. It is very rare for the league games to be played on a weeknight, but could happen.  If games are played on a weeknight, it is usually during the year end tournament.  

6. Why does it cost so much?

• Rising costs for gym rental, equipment, uniforms, insurance, cost for background checks for coaches and volunteers, etc.. are all part of our yearly expenses. Gym rental is by far our largest expense. We strive to keep the program as affordable as possible. We rely heavily on the support of our sponsors, so please thank those local company's who sponsor us. In addition, if you work for a company or know someone willing to sponsor a team, please let us know so we can continue to maintain as low of participation fees as possible. We also accept donations and welcome those who want to provide a “scholarship” by paying for a member of our community to play who otherwise might not be able to afford it.

7. This all sounds great, do you need any help?

• Help is always needed and appreciated. Coaches, assistant coaches, board members, team moms, volunteers to help out on game day, etc. are all needed. Even if you know little about the game of basketball, we are happy to make sure you are paired up with a coach who can not only teach your child, but help you learn as well.

8. What are you doing for a fundraiser this year?

• After evaluating the fundraiser and comments concerning the fundraising, we have decided to completely do away with ANY fundraiser. We will be accepting Sponsorships but there will not be a mandatory fundraisers. So the cost is considered an all in cost, are there will be no mandatory fundraisers or  buyouts that you are required to participate in.
