2022-2023 Recreation Basketball

The DYA Recreation Basketball program is for boys and girls in 1st-12th grade who reside within the boundaries of Dublin City Schools or the City of Dublin.

Space may be limited. Sign-ups are on a first-come basis.

Once individual leagues are filled and a waiting list forms, please continue to express your interest by signing up on the waiting list. If we are able to have enough players, coaches, and gym space to expand the league before the league meetings, we will make every attempt to do so.

Sign up if your child is trying out for their middle school or high school basketball team. If your child makes their school team, we will issue you a refund.

Team Notification & Practice/Game Schedule:
Families will hear from their coach and receive the practice & game schedule a day or two following your age group's preseason Coaches Meeting. See below for Coaches Meeting dates.

Teammate/Coach Requests:
Teams in the 3rd grade & younger leagues are assigned by the league office and most teammate/coach requests are able to be granted.

Teams in the 4th grade & older leagues are not usually formed by the league office as players are drafted by the coaches at the preseason coaches' meeting and are not grouped together by the league office in any way. The only grouping that occurs is that the head coach's children and the assistant coach's children are automatically placed on the same team with their parents as coaches. All other players in the league are drafted by the coaches. Teammate requests on registration forms (which are not guaranteed) are printed on the draft lists that the coaches look at during the draft to draft their team's players, however, there are no draft rules that require coaches to grant teammate/coach requests. Typically, coaches are able to grant some requests, but there are usually some requests that are not able to be granted. There are no guarantees that teammate requests will be honored by the coaches at the preseason meeting. Our draft procedures state that players are not able to be traded or assigned to a different team once the player draft is complete.

Basketball size:
1st-8th Grade Boys and all Girls Leagues use the 28.5'' circumference basketball (women's size ball). 9th-12th Grade Boys Leagues use the 29.5'' circumference basketball.

Basket height:
1st-2nd Grade Boys & Girls Leagues play with baskets at 8 feet. The 3rd Grade Girls League plays with baskets at 9 feet. All other leagues play with baskets at 10 feet.
