Kitchener Waterloo Girls Basketball is a not for profit organization founded in 2015 to offer basketball opportunities for girls in the Kitchener-Waterloo area.
KW Girls Basketball Association is currently in the process of planning for the 2020–2021 basketball season. Our intentions are to run both a fall and winter Jr. NBA program for girls born between 2010 and 2015 and to begin the rep season (for girls born between 2002 and 2011) with tryouts on Saturday, September 19th.
In light of the current Covid-19 situation, these programs may be delayed until the new year, or even longer. Any decisions regarding the start of the Jr. NBA or rep season will be made based on advice from local and provincial health authorities, Canada and Ontario Basketball and both local school boards. The safety of our players and their families will always be our primary objective.
That being said, in order to properly plan for the upcoming season and to allow us to stay in touch with the parents and players we would appreciate if everyone would take the time to complete our online registrations. There is no money required for any of our programs at this time.
Jr. NBA PROGRAM – We plan to run the fall session from Tuesday, September 29th to Tuesday, December 15th and the winter session from Tuesday, January 5th to Tuesday, March 30th. The location has not yet been confirmed, but we hope to continue to use Empire Public School and Centennial Public School similar to last year. In both sessions, 6:30pm to 7:25pm will be for girls born in 2013, 2014 and 2015 and 7:30pm to 8:25pm will be for girls born in 2010, 2011 and 2012. More details are available on our Junior Programs page.
In order to plan accurately for these sessions, KWGBA asks that parents of any interested player to complete the following registration: Jr NBA Registration. Payment will not be required until Ontario Basketball and Waterloo Region give us the go ahead for all programs. We will notify you when this happens.
Although there is no real commitment when you complete this registration, we would ask that you let us know if your plans change. We expect the number of participants to be a closely monitored factor in all our programs this season and all seasons going forward.
ALL REP TEAMS – We are currently planning to hold our first rep tryout for all age groups on Saturday, September 19th. As mentioned above, this assumes we have the go-ahead from all required authorities.
Please check out our Rep Teams page for details about our different rep teams. A full tryout schedule will be posted as soon as it is available – likely in late August. In order to plan accurately for the upcoming season, KWGBA would appreciate it, if you have a daughter who is interested in trying out for one of our rep teams, you complete the following registration: Rep Team Tryouts for 2020-2021 Season. There is NEVER any cost to tryout for a rep team with KWGBA!
With the current restrictions we expect the number of participants will be closely monitored for all our programs.
If you have any questions regarding any of our programs for the upcoming season, please feel free to contact us at kwgirlsbball@gmail.com
