T&C Basketball

Basketball Programs

T&C offers youth grades 1st-8th the opportunity to play recreational basketball. There are boys and girls leagues based on grade level.  Registration opens in early October. Leagues fill up fast as space is limited.   Games start in Dec and finish mid-February with 7+ games per league.

There is one weekly practice in RRISD schools with practices starting after Thanksgiving.  The day and time of practice is selected by volunteer coaches.   A player may request to play up if approved by the basketball administrator.

All games must be covered by a commissioner so volunteers for coaches and commissioners are appreciated.  A commissioner works with the league in which their child participates.  Step up and volunteer!
