🏀 Important Residency Notice PPYSA is a community-based league that primarily serves students who attend school within the Pilot Point ISD (PPISD) or reside within the PPISD district boundaries.

🧒 Pre-K through 1st Grade Teams (Co-Ed):
-Will participate in the Little Dribblers program Games will be played in a 3-on-3 format Each team is expected to have at least 5 players Teams will be split into two divisions:
- Pre-K and Kindergarten will be in a division with each team split evenly across both grades and will play other Pre-K/Kindergarten teams.          
-  1st grade will be in a separate division and will play other 1st grade teams  

🧒 2nd-3rd Grade Teams (Boys & Girls) ·        
-Will participate in the recreational program.
- If 14 or more players sign up in a specific grade, we will split the group into two separate teams to maintain balanced rosters and maximize playing time for everyone.  

🏆 4th–6th Grade Teams (Boys & Girls):
-If there are enough players to have 2 teams (14 or more), then we will conduct tryouts to determine placement on Black and Orange teams.
-Your child is not required to try out for a team unless they are wanting to play at a more competitive level.
-The purpose of this is to prepare these kids for the potential of playing in the competitive division which starts in 5th grade.
-These tryouts are designed to ensure fair and balanced team assignments based on skill level and team needs. If your child does not try out, then they will automatically be placed on the non-competitive team. 

Team selections will be made collaboratively by: ·        
-The coaching staff
-An objective third-party evaluator to ensure impartiality  

-Black teams will be formed based on skill level and team need ·         ---Orange teams will provide opportunities for all participants to play and develop  

Please Note:  For 5th and 6th grade teams - If there are only enough players for 1 team, then the coaches (with input from the team) will make the decision whether or not to play in the competitive level division

👥 Team Size Guidelines
-All teams will have a maximum of 10 players . In the event that there are more than 1 team in a specific grade, the maximum number on a team will be capped at 10 players.

-While we do our best to accommodate all interested players, priority is given to students within the district. Out-of-district players may be considered only if space is available, but placement cannot be guaranteed.  

Thank you for your understanding and support of our local youth sports community. We’re looking forward to a great season!  

Warm regards,

PPYSA Youth Basketball Committee
