Youth Basketball
Proudly supported by our 2026 Youth Sports Sponsor:

Winter 1
The YMCA Youth Basketball Program is designed to help children learn the fundamentals of basketball in a fun, positive, and encouraging environment. Participants will develop basic basketball skills such as dribbling, passing, shooting and defense, while building confidence and making new friends. All participants will receive a reversable jersey, too!
Why Play at the Y?
-Adjustable hoop heights, proper to your kiddo’s age
-Small teams, meaning more playing time and better opportunity to be coached
-Fewer players on the court, leading to more space, more basketball, and more room for skill development.
-Proper ball size, proper to the age of the player
-Play with your friends from school!
Volunteer Coaches Needed
This program relies on dedicated volunteer coaches. Without volunteer support, the program may not be able to operate. Coaches are given practice plans and support if needed. Coaches also have a few perks as well.
A complimentary coach shirt
Small team sizes
- The opportunity to pick your practice time and day
A 50% discount on a future YMCA Sports program
Program Structure
This program will play all games at the Janesville YMCA on Saturday. Practices will primarily be in Janesville, but we can be flexible to offering a practice in Milton if that is convenient for our participants and their coach. Practices will be Tues, Wed, or Thursday at 5:15p, 6:10p, or 7:05p in the JP Cullen Gym. There will be one per week, picked by the volunteer coach.
This program will not meet for practices or games the week of Thanksgiving (November 23-28)
