Youth Basketball
-
-
CYM Basketball consists of youth focused on learning and playing the game of basketball. The program runs from grades third through high school with main focus on fourth through eighth graders. Players, parents and coaches travel to various diocesan parishes and play other CYM teams in their appropriate grade bracket. We also play home games in our Parish Center Gym. The season runs from Thanksgiving to the middle of March.Time commitment involves one hour weekly practice, as well as two hours for game time every Saturday. Parents are expected to volunteer their time to help with the responsibilities of maintaining the program such as collecting admission, keeping scoreboard and running the clock. Assistance is also needed with selling drinks and snacks.
Children require no training, but should participate in weekly practice. Adults interested in coaching must attend Virtus Training and the Rutgers Coaches training. In addition, all coaches need to be fingerprinted.

We hope everyone is enjoying a wonderful summer and excited to start the upcoming school year. We are preparing for another great season of basketball at St. Bernard and getting the communications out early. Registration is not yet open, but will be open from September 8th through September 24th on TeamSnap at the following link:
https://go.teamsnap.com/forms/391858
Again, do not try to register prior to 9AM, September 8th. The cost will be the same as last season: $150 per player, $50 for each additional sibling, and $70 for a new uniform. All fees are refundable if canceled prior to November 15th. If you are interested in volunteering for the St. Bernard Basketball Board or as a coach, please reach out now as we would love to have you involved! Please also share this e-mail freely to help promote the program - registration priority will be given to St. Bernard parishioners, but we do welcome the participation of returning players and non-parishioners as well on a first-come first-served basis. You can contact us at stbernardnjcym@gmail.com with questions or offers to volunteer. More detailed information will follow for all players and families who register by the deadline, but the tentative plan is to finalize teams by late October and start practices in mid-November. Thank you!
