Sienna Youth Basketball is a recreational basketball league rooted in providing youth with a fundamentally sound basketball experience. While winning at all costs is not the goal in Sienna Youth Basketball, encouraging participants to learn to be competitive in a fair, healthy and team-first manner is critical to the league experience. Our league is volunteer-based. No coaches are compensated for their time, but commit it out of their love for community and youth growth and development. We encourage volunteerism, as it is the lifeblood of our organization!
All practices are held and games are played right here in Sienna! We practice and play games at Baines Middle School, Restoration City Life Center, Thornton Middle School and Divine Savior Academy. The only time any gyms other than at those three sites are used are in unforeseen circumstances where the host cannot accommodate us on that date.
We hold two seasons per year: a summer league and a winter league.
Summer league registration usually begins in March and ends in May. Summer league season begins after school lets out for the summer and ends before school resumes in the fall. Teams identify their own practice locations and games are played on weeknights.
Winter league registration usually begins in Mid-September and ends in November. Winter league season begins after Winter Break and ends in February. Teams are assigned a practice time and location and games are played on Saturdays.
There are no discounts for registering multiple players. There are no discounts for the children of coaches---but we are EXTREMELY appreciative of our volunteers!
We are not able to accommodate "buddy" requests to play with specific friends or neighbors. The only teammate requests we can guarantee are siblings, persons living in the same household, or players with whom a homebound parent or guardian is involved.
Teams do not roll over from year-to-year and coaches do not always return. Even if they do, unfortunately, we cannot accommodate requests for the same coach / teammates as had in previous seasons.
Unfortunately, no. With the number of participants in our leagues, we simply don't have the ability to accommodate everyone's schedule requests.
Yes, absolutely! Non-residents are welcome in all of our youth leagues! We have resident and non-resident participation rates.
We will do whatever we can to accommodate as many people as possible. Sometimes, however, we simply can't. Please follow us on Facebook, Instagram and www.siennarec.com so you don't miss registration reminders!
