Cambridge Jr Bears Basketball

The Purpose of the Cambridge Junior Bears Basketball Program is to develop the skills of 5th, 6th, 7th & 8th grade basketball players in preparation for participation in the Cambridge High School Basketball Program.

This is all about the performance and development of the team and players - both advanced players and developing players. For the advanced players, the objective is to push and develop them to get better, improve skills and progress collectively as a team - ultimately delivering a well-functioning cohesive unit ready for integration into CHS basketball. For the developing players, the objective is to continue to build skills and abilities with the hope that in time they push the advanced players to get better or eventually take spots on the team. This is not a recreational program and thus has no guarantees related to game play-time. Game playing time is earned; it is not a right – nor is it guaranteed in any way.

Ages

5th-8th Grade Players who live in the Cambridge High School district.

When

Season begins with tryouts in September and runs until playoffs in February.

Where

Practices will usually be held at Cambridge High School. Alternative locations may be used if gym space is not available.

Practices

Teams practice 2-3 times per week based on gym availability.

Games

We participate in both the Cobb County Junior Basketball Conference (CCJBC) and the North East Cobb Winter League. Games will be held on Saturdays & Sundays at participating schools.

Uniforms

Player uniforms will be provided to use for the season and include a reversible jersey/shorts and shooting shirts. Players will be assigned a number based on availability.

Extra Costs

There is an admission cost to attend both CCJBC and NEC games. Admission prices are set by the organizations running the league and are not controlled by the Cambridge Jr. Bears.

CCJBC:

Adults: $10
Students/Seniors: $5
Children under 5: Free

Volunteer Requirements

We can’t do this without parent participation and the more support the better. We need a team parent/manager but would also love help with collecting money at the gates, concessions, stats, photos & other needs during the season. Please try and help when and where you can.
