THE RETURN

Our Fall Season will officially begin in September. Our 2020 Season  will be broken down into 3 phases. Each Phase details a step in safety precautions to ensure we follow all the proper guidelines.

*All players must wear a mask when not participating in active practice. Players must bring their own basketballs and water bottles to practice. To minimize the amount of people at the park parents will be asked to drop off players at the designated drop off area.

Parents can NOT attend practices.

OUR 3 PHASE RETURN

Phase 1: Practices will be once a week. Practices will be outside at Ruben Dario Park. Playing outdoors ensures there is proper spacing for social distancing and plenty of air circulation which helps reduce the risk for our kids. Practices will be at Ruben Dario park where we will follow the Miami Dade Parks Safety Policies and Procedures. Practices will begin with basic drills like fundamental ball handling and shooting drills where players will be using their own basketballs and practicing these drills within their designated space.

Phase 2: Practices remain outdoors now 2 teams can practice on a full court. Practices will be 2 times per week during this time players can begin to work on their offense defense and start half court scrimmaging. 

Phase 3: We begin to play games. Practice will be minimal. Every team will play 10 games including playoffs within an 8 week span.

All Star Event will be at the midway point of the Season

The Rosters have already been created. The Coaches have been contacted and within the next 2 weeks the coaches and the organization will be contacting all players regarding the start of the season. Players will receive their uniforms in Phase 3.

Due to Covid Game Schedules cannot be established until Phase 3.

The 2020 season will run September - November

We look forward to a fun and  SAFE return to Basketball.

Hope to see you all soon!

The Tamiami Youth Basketball program is designed to teach and motivate our youth to set and achieve goals by stressing the importance of commitment, integrity, confidence, and overcoming obstacles. We believe we have a responsibility to educate and empower our communities to be successful, productive citizens for tomorrow.

Through our Community Basketball Program, we use the sport of Basketball as a conduit to promote the importance of academics, teamwork and good sportsmanship. Our League, which is run by volunteers, provides a fun, yet competitive safe environment where our children can learn the fundamental skills necessary for success on and off the basketball court.
