Youth Basketball
Youth COBA Basketball
Purpose: To provide boys and girls in grades 3-6 with an opportunity to play basketball in a more structured environment than that of a recreation or Warrior League team. COBA (Central Ohio Basketball Association) teams are designed to provide competitive games and practices for players seeking to compete at a higher level. This is a great starting point for those who have ambitions to play Middle School Basketball.
Experience, Skill, and Athleticism: These are considered when selecting participants for a team. Sometimes players don’t have the necessary tools to effectively take part in practices and games. While experience, skill, and athleticism aren’t the only considerations, they are an important part of the selection process.
Commitment: All our teams will be taught the same fundamental skills as our high school teams. Teams will practice 2-3 times per week in the preseason. Each team will play several home games and several away games, and a COBA league tournament in mid-February. Most games will be played on the weekend, but there could be occasional weeknight games. League games will be held from late November to early February.
Boys Tryouts: Will be held at the Upper School on Wednesday, September 9, and Thursday, September 10, from 7-8:15 PM.
Girls Tryouts: Will be held at the Upper School on Friday, September 25, from 6:30-7:30, and Saturday, September 26, from 1:30-2:30.

Winter Warrior League
The Warrior Basketball League is a long-standing tradition within the WC Athletic Department, created to provide young athletes with an enjoyable, instructional, and competitive basketball experience. The league is open to boys and girls in kindergarten through sixth grade, and participation is welcome from both WC and non-WC students.
Players are grouped into separate leagues by gender and grade level, and all will receive equal playing time. Before games, coaches will lead a 20-minute practice focused on teaching and developing fundamental basketball skills. All games are officiated and consist a 35 minute running-clock. Teams will compete in a full schedule of games throughout the 6-week season, starting early January to early February.
