The department does not provide equipment for the program. Parents are required to provide a basketball and non-marking soled shoes for each child. Both league’s success depends on parents as volunteer coaches. Both residents and non-residents of the city are welcome to participate in the league.

Do not put it off; the registration deadline is Saturday, September 23 for the girls’ league and Saturday, October 28 for the boys’ league, so register now! A $5 late fee will be applied to any registrations accepted after the deadline.

JPRD is excited to include an online registration option at no additional charge, with the use of a debit or credit card, specifically for the winter basketball programs at https://signupville.com/Jerseyville/Default.aspx.
