NYAA Basketball Program

Welcome to the NYAA Basketball website. 

The NYAA offers basketball to children in grades Kindergarten thru 12^th grade. We offer a Travel League starting at the 5^th grade level for both male and female—tryouts are  required-- (games against other youth organizations organized by the league) and the Recreational League (games within the NYAA same age group).  If a child tryouts for a travel team or a school team, and not chosen, they are welcome to participate in their appropriate recreational league.   

Parents are encouraged to volunteer their time
in any way possible. 

The program is structured as follows:
