Fall Season Information:
Fall In-House basketball is open to boys and girls in 1st - 3rd grade.  Registration was available from May through August 15, 2008.  The season will begin in late October and run until mid-December. There will be two practices a week for the first two weeks and then one practice and one game per week for the remainder of the season.  See your schedule (coming soon!) for specific times and dates.  All games will be played on Saturdays between 8:00 am and 4:00 pm.   

Winter Season Information:  Grades 4th - 6th
Our winter season for grades 4 - 6 will start in January and runs through mid-March ending with an exciting tournament.  We will be accepting registrations for our 2008 Winter Season in mid-October 2008.    Please watch the website for more details on the upcoming winter season.

Based on parent feedback, we will be holding player evaluations (December 15th - 4th grade, December 16 - 5th grade, December 17 - 6th grade) in an effort to ensure more balanced teams.  We will also be offering a Developmental Clinic on December 29th for incoming 4th graders to help with their transition to 5v5 with referees and full court play.  Cost of the Developmental Clinic is $25.

Evaluations for Grades 4th - 6th  - CANCELLED

Parents:  After much discussion with other members of the EAA Board, and taking the advice of many traveling sports directors, we have decided to cancel the evaluation process for EAA In-House Basketball.

This was never an attempt to turn in-house into a traveling-type program.  The process was to be structured such that schools would still have played together, and kids would still have played with their friends. It was in response to parent complaints about teams being very unbalanced. But we were not certain the evaluations would have accomplished the goal and the evaluation process was also causing issues with parents.

Thank you for your feedback last year regarding uneven teams and for your feedback this year regarding the evaluations.
