The Williamstown Youth Center’s in-house basketball program returns with fun and excitement that will keep your child moving. Our program emphasizes movement with plenty of chances to get their hands on the ball in a fun, energetic environment.
Fun, sportsmanship, fundamental movement, and gross motor skills are emphasized. There are no evaluations or formal games for this division. Players develop their basketball skills using age-appropriate basketballs with hoops set at heights recommended by USA Basketball. Kindergarteners play once on the weekend; first and second graders play one weekday and weekend day.
Holiday break: December 23, 2025 – January 1, 2026
Kindergarten: Saturdays at 9:00
Grade 1: Tuesdays at 5:30, Saturdays game times TBD
Grade 2: Thursdays at 5:30, Saturdays game times TBD
Assistant coaches are needed for all grades at this level. No coaching or basketball experience is required. The more volunteers we have, the more the players move with the basketball and have the greatest opportunity to work on their individual ball-handling. Kids at this age love to see their parents on the court with them! If you are interested in helping out during your child’s session, please email both Miriah at miriah@williamstownyouthcenter.org and Rob at roberthnatonko@gmail.com.
