Session I recap…

Bloomfield Basketball All Star team prevailed despite an 18 point deficit at half time against a local Middle school team. This was a game to remember as both teams battled at the second half and ended with nail-biting finish. Nathan G. led the team with 24 points and Jordan Ricarte with 12 points. Charlie M., Alec L., Julian A. and Mitch D. scored a combined total of 20 points. Team was coached by Mike D. of Seaholm HS varsity.

All games were played similar to High school game clock rules. 8 minute stop clock and 2 adult MHSAA registered referees. All teams were provided team jersey and shorts for the season. Weekly practices provided by the league helped the teams and players excel with the majority of the players making their respective school teams.

Thank you to all coaches, staff, players, parents and fans for making our Inaugural season a success. I hope you and your children will join us again and together build a great neighborhood basketball league!

Invitation to Join Bloomfield Basketball League

 

 

Dear Bloomfield Parent:

I am proud to announce the formation of an exciting new youth basketball league for families in the Bloomfield Hills area.  

As the father of three sons who love sports, my wife and I have spent countless hours driving and traveling to youth sports leagues located as far as 25 miles from home so that our boys could play basketball year-round.  As long-time residents of Bloomfield Hills, we wished that our city and township had its very own youth basketball league so our kids could play closer to home, spend less time traveling, and hang out with their neighborhood friends.  Being working parents, our commuting schedules often resulted in one of us missing some of their games.

Located in Bloomfield Hills, the new Bloomfield Basketball League  (www.bloomfieldbasketball.com) will accommodate players from grades 3 to 12. Our goal is to provide all children with a solid foundation of skills, confidence, love for the game of basketball, and the joy of being part of a TEAM.  

This fall we are launching our inaugural season with two sessions — September 29 to November 15 and December 1 to January 31. The league consists of separate teams for girls and boys.  The first session begins with player evaluation on September 17 and 19 and runs until November 15. The second session begins with player evaluation on November 19 and runs until January 31. 

Registration deadline is September 19 for the first session and November 21 for the second session.

Player evaluation will be held at East Hills Middle School, 6:30-8:00PM, on the above scheduled dates. The typical weekly schedule will include one practice and one game. There will be a minimum of 6 games and practices plus playoffs. Some games may be scheduled on Saturdays depending on how many teams are formed.

Participation includes:

                       ·     Individual player uniform (team jersey                                and shorts) to use for the current season

·      Player evaluation to determine team assignments (you need to register before attending evaluation)

·      Everybody plays and makes the team

·      Weekly practices (minimum 6 practices)

·      Minimum 6 games plus playoffs officiated by registered referees

·      League awards 

To register for our inaugural season, please visit the Bloomfield Hills Recreation and Community Services at http://www.bloomfieldrec.org, then search for “Bloomfield Basketball League”.

Parents and guardians can join the league, too!  We welcome knowledgeable, enthusiastic, dedicated, and youth-oriented coaching candidates for our inaugural basketball season. There will be a complimentary coaches clinic provided. If you would like to be considered as a coach, please submit a letter of interest outlining your team preferences, any previous coaching and basketball experience, and your coaching philosophy.  Letters can be emailed to coaches@bloomfieldbasketball.com

 

I hope you and your children will join with us and together build a great neighborhood basketball league!  If you have any questions, you can email me at gani@bloomfieldbasketball.com or call 248.566-6508.

See you this fall!
