Attention All Adult Volunteers
A police background check is required for all adult volunteers involved with our programme. Your confidentiality will be maintained by having all checks reviewed by a single person and then destroyed. This is in keeping with the requirements established by most minor sports organizations, and is a requirement for all organizations using Algonquin and Lakeshore Catholic District School Board facilities. The background checks can be done through the City of Kingston Police Station on Division Street. The cost is the responsibility of the individual and not the organization. The background check must be completed and handed in to Roland Billings prior to the first game of the season.
Hi
Registration for the 2015-16 season will be at St. Patrick School, 158 Patrick Street on Saturday September 12 from 9-1030 am. Cost for the season is $10. Your grand daughter would play in the Girls Division, and their games are played on Wednesday nights. There are 8 teams in the division and games are in 45 minute time slots, with the first game each night starting at 6 pm and the last starting at 815pm. We are in the last week of our season now. Please contact me again if there are any other questions. Information about registration and other events with the league can be found at the Events tab of our web site.
My 7 year old turns 8 on 30 Dec, is he good for the 8-10 division then? Thanks.

Hello I’m seeking information in regards to the 8-10 year old girls basketball. Wondering if there is still room to sign up my daughter. I am aware that the tryouts are this evening, was wondering if I should bring her tonight or need to wait?
Thank you

Thanks

Hi There, I have just learned of your league, and wondered whiter it is too late to join for the 2015-16 season. My daughter is 10 years old, so would be in the little gals league presumably.
Thanks, Karyn
Hi
That Division is full for this year, but we still have a couple of spaces on our waiting list, so there is a remote possiblity that something could open up this season. Please e mail me with the player’s name, Date of Birth and a contact phone number if you want me to add her to the waiting list. My e mail is [email protected]. Thanks for considering our program.
Roland Billings
Hi,
When students on the waiting list for boy’s group (8-10) will be notified?
Thank you.
Hi
Players on the waiting list will be notified if players drop out of the program. We do not add any players until an opening is created.
Roland Billings
Hi, my daughter would like to play. She is 11 years old. Would she still be able to play? Thanks, Leah

Does every child receive player of the week??
Thanks
They should by the end of the season.
Hi there,
My son is 7 and won’t be 8 until the fall. I am trying to find summer day camps for his age with specific emphasis on basketball. He really wants to play! Do you offer anything like this? Or can you suggest?
Thank you.
Hi there! When and where is registration for the upcoming season?
Thanks
Hi
Registration for the upcoming season is on Saturday September 10 at St. Pat’s officially from 9-10:30 am, but we typically start the process sooner than that. We do usually fill up quickly, so I suggest that you get there early. Details of game nights, cost and other requirements are on the web site and Facebook page. Thanks for considering our program.

Hello my name is Mike Hartley I run a Christian Basketball Program at Kingston Gospel temple on Tuesday nights beginning on Tuesday nights. I was wondering if you could post my flyer at your registration and or give copies to coaches and teams. If you could let me know or direct me to a contact requarding this that would be great thanks
Hi Mike
I responded to your email test message. Please let me know if you received it. While we do not want to create confusion at registration this Saturday, I will be happy to post details of your program after registration is complete. Roland
Can i pay by paypal?
Cash or cheque only.
I think you misspelled the word “Honourary” on your website. If you want to keep errors off of your site we’ve successfully used a tool like SpellPros.com in the past for our websites. A nice customer pointed out our mistakes so I’m just paying it forward :).
Hi Randy. We are a Canadian organization and as such the spelling of “Honourary” is correct.
Please notify me should you be able to accept registrations and start playing basketball again.
Thank you
Hi Sharlene. Once a decision is made by the school board on Community Use of Schools we will post when registration day will be on our web site , Facebook page and twitter feed providing full details on when registration will take place. We can’t commit to contacting individuals. Roland

Hi
Wondering if anyone has heard if the young men’s basketball league run by St Lawrence college is starting again? Before COVID, it ran weekly throughout the summer. It was such a great league. Both my fellas enjoyed it immensely, and improved significantly, because it was just for fun!
please let me know
thanks
Kerrilynn
Hi Kerrilynn
I checked with St. Lawrence and they are running basketball camps this summer, but I have not been able to find out anything about the summer league that was run through St. Lawrence. Barry Smith was a driver of that league when he was the coach but he is no longer at he college. James Wallace was also an organizer a few years ago. You can email him at [email protected] and ask him directly. Our program has never had anything to do with the summer league. Roland
Good morning Roland,
Matthew (Sutton) is heading off to Laurentian University next year for Phys.Ed./Con.Ed.! Do you still offer a bursary? If so, can yo please send me the application form. (I can’t find anything on the website…)
Thanks and have a great day.
Colleen (Earle)
Hi Colleen
My goodness ! Matthew is off to Laurentian in the fall. The Don Pete Petersen Spitit Memorial Award is not administered by the league. Pete’s family runs it. Here is a link to the webnode page.
https://don-pete.webnode.page/?fbclid=IwAR33XfrpRyLt5OsEY3zDPA_TMz3oCzN2vTZmsr47UC2GTc5k08ctsr7gHNs
In the past applications have been available through the guidance departments at the schools, but I also believe an application is available on that page.
Stay well and enjoy the sunshine.
Roland
