The jr. NBA/WNBA league games have several formats which are listed below.
Rosters should be a maximum 9 players per team
All registered players will take part in player evaluations. These drills will be observed and conducted by coaches. Shortly thereafter, coaches will complete a fair selection process of players to fill out their roster.
Each season is packed with 8 weeks of games! All games will take place on Saturday mornings/afternoons. The number of teams in each division will determine whether a two week playoff format or a one week championship format will be used to end the season.
Individual skills practices (optional) will occur during the week while team practices occur on game days. We are the ONLY league that uses this innovative format!
