The FYBA Travel Basketball Program provides a competitive basketball experience for players who are committed to developing their skills and competing at a higher level. Players are selected through an evaluation process and placed on teams based on skill level, developmental readiness, and competitive balance.

Our program emphasizes player development, teamwork, sportsmanship, and character while preparing athletes for future success at the middle school, high school, and beyond.

The FYBA Travel Basketball Program is committed to:

• Developing basketball skills and game knowledge through quality coaching and competitive play.
• Building confidence, discipline, accountability, and a strong work ethic.
• Teaching teamwork, communication, and the importance of shared goals.
• Preparing players for higher levels of competition.

Fundraising plays an important role in supporting a nonprofit program like ours, helping ensure we can continue providing quality opportunities for players while managing increasing operational costs. As our program has grown, expenses such as additional gym space, tournament costs, and referee coverage have also increased. To help support these needs in a sustainable way, we are introducing a raffle ticket program for 2026, with proceeds helping to offset operational costs.

Each family is required to purchase $100 in raffle tickets at player evaluations/tryouts. Families may choose to keep the tickets or sell them.

For those who prefer not to participate in the raffle, there is an option to opt out by paying a $100 fee at the time of evaluations/tryouts.

The season typically begins with practices in October, followed by tournaments running from November through March, and concludes with participation in the State Tournament.

Teams participate in weekend tournaments throughout the season, with most events held locally; however, some may require occasional overnight travel.

Boys 3^rd & 4^th Grade: 8 Tournaments

Boys 5^th & 6^th Grade: 9 Tournaments

Boys 7^th & 8^th Grade: 10 Tournaments

Player evaluations are held in September, with 2026-2027 season evaluations scheduled for the following dates. Players are required to attend both evaluation sessions.

Girls Evaluations: September 12th - 13th, 2026

Boys Evaluations: September 19th - 20th, 2026

Each family is required to complete approximately eight (8) volunteer hours per season, regardless of the number of players registered within the household.

Volunteer roles are limited to our two annual tournament weekends and are usually posted about two weeks beforehand. No other volunteer opportunities are offered outside those weekends.



• Boys Tiger Classic: December 5–6
• Girls Tiger Classic: February 6-7

Note: In previous years, families were required to complete two volunteer credits, with each credit representing approximately four hours of service. This equates to the current eight-hour volunteer requirement.

If you expect you cannot fulfill volunteer hours, you may opt to pay a $400 buyout during registration.

NEW: We are no longer collecting $400 prewritten checks for volunteer hours.

If volunteer hours are NOT fulfilled by the end of the season, a $400 fee will be charged to the payment method on file.
