2026-2027 Littleton Parks and Recreation
Youth Basketball
Welcome to the Littleton Parks and Recreation youth basketball programs page!
Please read the information below regarding the specifics of both our in-house and travel basketball teams.
In-House Basketball:
The goal of in-house basketball is for participants to practice and advance on the fundamental skills required to play the game of basketball.
Kindergarten -2nd Grade:
Our program is the perfect opportunity to introduce younger players to the fundamentals of basketball in a fun and engaging environment. The K-2 practices are designed to learn the basics of handling a basketball and learning how to play with other team mates on the court.
K-2 Schedule Information:
Children are split into 3 coed groups and will meet 1 day each week for a 45 minute practice. Specific schedule to be announced once coaches have been established.
Grades 3-6:
Our in-house teams meet to practice and focus on progressing their fundamental skills while learning the game, as opposed to playing competitive games. The in-house season encourages players to focus on their pre-existing skills and develop more to utilize in future in-house seasons, or during the travel team season.
Schedule Information:
Players are usually split into teams per age group: 3/4 girls & boys and 5/6 girls & boys. The specific number of teams is dependent on the number of registrants. If there are enough players we will have a 3/4 girls and 3/4 boys team, as well as a 5/6 girls and a 5/6 boys team.
Each team will meet to practice for an hour, 2 or 3 nights per week.
A specific schedule will be produced by Parks and Recreation prior to the start date of the season.
[Please note: Parks and Recreation is in charge of facilitating the gym times with the school, but whether a coach utilizes their practice time or chooses to cancel, is up to the coach.]
Travel Team Basketball:
( For children in grades 3 - 6 )
The goal of the travel team is for players to utilize the skills they learned during the in-house season in a more competitive season. The travel team season is a larger commitment compared to in-house and does require the athletes to travel to away games that happen during the week, along with tournaments at least two weekends a month. If your athlete is signed up for travel, Parks and Recreation strongly encourages families to fully commit to the season and all of the necessary travel requirements.
[Please note: we require participants who are interested in playing travel, to play in-house as well. The in-house season is designed to build player's skills for the competition encountered during their travel team season.]
