The philosophy of the boys’ basketball program is to introduce basketball to boys, beginning in 3rd grade and continuing through 8th grade.
In learning and practicing core individual skills (dribbling, passing, shooting, guarding, conditioning, discipline) and team roles (positions, plays, guarding techniques, bench support), boys will be prepared for competitive basketball at St. Jude.
Teams
Boys in grades 3rd-5th are able to play on a developmental team regardless of number of athletes playing.
Boys in grades 6th-8th will tryout for placement on a Varsity team. Junior Varsity teams will be established upon athlete interest.
Fees
The fee for each student eligible to play basketball is $125.
Practice
Team practices are called by our coaches and will be communicated via email.
