Fall/Winter 2012/2013 Basketball League

PRAA in conjunction with DICKS Sporting Goods Youth Community Sports Program is pleased to once again offer instructional competitive basketball leagues for Boys and Girls ages 5 – 15 years old.

PRAA is excited to announce the start of a new Basketball Season. Last year PRAA Basketball had over 260 players on 30 Teams representing the Porter Ridge Athletic Association and surrounding communities. We are very excited and look forward to many of these players returning this year, and welcoming new players/ families this upcoming season to our Basketball Program. We look forward to a fun and competitive season with our Intra League teams, as well as teams from other Associations during our Inter League play. We sincerely hope every player enjoys learning about the game of Basketball and further develops their skills in this great sport. We want to THANK all the families/ players and sponsors for their continue support of our Basketball Program and all the other sports offered by the Porter Ridge Athletic Association.

We also want to take this opportunity to review some very important information/ dates regarding PRAA Basketball:

Managing over 260 players on 30 teams playing in multiple gym locations takes a tremendous amount of time and energy. Thank you to everyone involved. That includes our basketball commissioner, assistant commissioners, coaches, players, and especially parents. Without everyone's help there is no way we could pull this off. With this said we ask your patience and understanding when something doesn't go as smoothly as you would expect. PRAA is a volunteer based association and without everyone's hard work we would not be able to provide these exciting opportunities to our children.

We hope everyone has fun and we thank you again for your support of PRAA.
