Registration: Registrations will be accepted on a space-available basis through Sunday, October 6. If your child's age group is in "waitlist" status when you register, it means that teams are full or the registration deadline has passed. Please complete the registration to be placed on the waitlist (your credit card will not be charged unless you are placed on a team). You will be contacted by Community Education if we are able to get your child on a team. If you register after October 6 and your child is placed on a team, a $30 late fee will be assessed, and player requests may not be available.
Fee: $169 if registered on or before October 6. $199 if registered after October 6.
Team Formation: Teams will be formed based on gender, grade level, school attendance, availability of volunteer coaches and teammate/sibling requests. Players may request to be placed on the same team as one other player when registering. Teammate/sibling requests will be taken into consideration providing the player you request also requests you. Only one request per player is allowed. Please note that although we try to accommodate these requests, they are not guaranteed.
Coaches Needed!: Have fun coaching your son or daughter and teammates! We'll provide curriculum, support and training. A required virtual coach meeting will be held on October 24th. Coaches should be able to attend most weekly practices and Saturday games. Please note your interest in coaching during the registration process.
Uniform: Players will receive a Minnetonka Basketball reversible jersey. Players should wear athletic clothing and non-marking gym shoes. Players are required to bring a basketball to each practice/game. Grade 4 uses a junior-size basketball (size 27.5). Grade 5 uses an intermediate-size basketball (size 28.5). Minnetonka basketballs will be available for purchase at the Minnetonka Community Education Center.
Hoop Height: 10 Feet
