4TH, 5TH & 6TH GRADE
The GLPS Athletic Department has combined forces with the Grand Ledge Youth Basketball Association in efforts to streamline youth basketball in the community. All 4th - 6th grade boys interested in playing basketball will need to attend an evaluation conducted by the HS coaching staff (all skill levels are encouraged to attend). Players will be placed on teams based on their potential position and skills. 3 levels of teams will be created - Gold - Silver - Bronze. Everyone will make a team, no cuts will be made. All GL teams will participate in the Red Cedar Basketball League where they'll play against other community based teams of the same grade and skill level. Coaches are volunteers and will be guided and trained by the MS & HS basketball coaching staff. Teams will practice in GLPS gyms and home games will be held at the Middle School and High School. Away game locations will vary in the Tri-County area.
