South Cape Basketball

South Cape Basketball is a ministry to meet families where they are with basketball to help them follow Jesus. In the 2018-2019, we provided Upward Basketball Leagues and Camps to over 200 kids in the community. This season we are providing South Cape Basketball, which will be a new, unique experience for athletes and families.

South Cape Basketball is a co-ed recreational basketball program in which athletes learn the game of basketball, develop basketball skills (shooting, dribbling, etc.), have fun, make new friends, and learn about God’s design for their life.

Athletes will have a total of seven practices and three tournaments, as well as three additional practices for those who want more practice. Regular practices include drills, scrimmaging, and a team devotion.

There are two divisions: The Stars (1^st, 2^nd, some 3^rd graders) and The Legends (4^th, 5^th, and some 3^rd graders). Athletes will only practice and compete with other athletes within their division. Teams for tournaments will be divided based on height, skill level, and age in order to provide the best experience for athletes. If able, we will separate boys and girls for tournaments. Teams may be adjusted as needed throughout the season.

Athletes will receive a South Cape Basketball shirt in the beginning of the season and will receive an award at the end of the season.
