CRHoops Youth Basketball Opportunities

Three Rivers Youth League

The Three-Rivers League is made up of teams formed by our local schools. In the past the league has included schools such as:

Coshocton, Garaway, Hiland, Ridgewood, Newcomerstown, River View, and West Holmes.

This league plays on Saturdays throughout December and January. Each school hosts one Saturday where 5th grade teams play against each other as do 6th grade teams. All the schools have agreed to consider this a developmental league! Which means we do not keep records, nor do we have a tournament. This league is an opportunity for our players to continue to develop their game as they focus on fundamentals and begin to learn strategies and team concepts.

Coshocton’s 5th and 6th grade teams will practice 1-2 times per week for 90mins each. Our teams will practice together as often as possible as we want all of our athletes learning the same system of Coshocton Basketball. Again, this league is a developmental league that is all about teaching and the players learning how to use the fundamentals they have learned in game situations. Please do not put an emphasis on winning, but rather on developing and learning!

Registration/Evaluation/ Draft Day: Sat Oct 26, 2024 from 11am-1230 pm AT CHS

Again, if your son is really enjoying basketball and wants to continue playing a little longer, he can. Once this league is over we will assemble a 5th grade team and a 6th grade team that will play in 4-6 area tournaments in Feb-March. These teams will practice 2-3 times per week leading up to the tournaments. There are additional fees for these tournament teams. Parents will be asked to pay these fees (total fees calculated and divided evenly by # of players).

OTHER YOUTH DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES

Lil-Dribblers

K-4th Grade

Lil-Dribblers is our introductory program that introduces youngsters to basketball by developing their ball-handling skills. Ball Handling is one of the most vital skills to our overall Basketball program and it can be developed at an early age.

Our Lil-Dribbler program is open to boys in grades K-4th grade. We tier this program by grades where our K & 1st graders do a ball handling routine using a smaller ball. The routine focuses on moving the ball, dribbling, throwing, and catching. Our 2nd and 3rdgraders use a regulation size ball and do more complex dribble moves such as between the legs and around the back, advancing their skill set. Our final group is our 4th graders who handle two basketballs at one time. This use of the overload principle greatly enhances these players’ ball handling abilities. The time spent mastering these drills really prepares our players to begin handling the basketball against a defender!
