Facilities
All basketball activities will take place at various facilities located within a 10 mile radius of Grayson city limits.
Skills Evaluations
Skill Evaluations will be held in mid-October. The goal of the GAA REC Leagues is to provide the most balanced and competitive set of teams possible in all leagues. To accomplish that goal, all participants must attend mandatory Skill Evaluations to be assessed so that we can evenly distribute participants of each skill level across all teams.
Practices
Each team will be assigned a practice day/time of Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday during the season. Prior to the first game, teams will practice twice per week. Once games begin, practices will be held once per week.
Games
Each team will be scheduled for eight (8) regular season games and a single elimination season ending tournament.
Volunteers
We are in need of volunteers 16 years of age or older to assist as scorebook keepers, clock operators and photographers during game day activities beginning in December and lasting until February as well at our community pep rally. All volunteers will receive training and support throughout the season. This requires a 2-3 hour commitment for games held on Saturdays or weeknights. We will sign for all volunteer/community service hours performed.
