MBA Community – The online store to purchase Madison Basketball 2023/24 season apparel will open soon. Stand by for additional information. Our organization is again partnering with Alfred’s Sport Shop in Madison for the sale of MBA apparel. The initial window for the online store will run until Sunday November 28, 2021. Due to the significant supply chain issues there is no guarantee that orders will be in by Christmas, but Alfred’s will attempt to meet that deadline. Please understand that supply chain issues are beyond Alfred’s control. We will open a second window for the store with the same items on November 29, 2021 and those items will be delivered sometime after the holidays. Travel players are encouraged to use this initial window for the purchase of the “shooting shirt,” which is to be worn over your uniform at games. The shirt options are in the “Strongly Encouraged” section of the online store and can be monogramed for an additional $5. If you have your shirt from last year, no need to purchase again. Those in 4th grade should consider ordering. Questions about sizes, etc. can be answered by Alfred’s. Ask for Frank or Steve at 973-377-005 1. Remember, your purchases help support our program! Thanks for the support The MBA
MBA Community, Welcome to the 2021-2022 Madison Youth Recreation Basketball Season! Our recreation season begins the weekend of December 11th and 12th for grades 1 – 3 and the weekend of January 8th and 9th for grades 4 – 8. Kids will get a practice jersey at the first session that is to be worn at all sessions throughout the year. We expect all kids to be on-time, wearing sneakers and gym attire and ready to play. Parents, please send your child with water and ensure your child is at the gym 5 minutes before their start time as it is difficult to organize and run an efficient session if kids are walking in the gym after their session has started. Please respect the coaches and players in the session by staying quiet and off the gym floor until the prior session has ended. COVID. Please note that ALL persons entering/exiting the gyms must be wearing a mask. Players will be able to remove their masks while engaged during their sessions. Please note that we can only entertain a limited number of spectators in the gym and all said spectators must be masked at all times. NO exceptions!!! Like prior years, sessions for grades 1-3 will consist of drills and informal game play. Sessions for grades 4 and up will consist of game play. Recreation basketball is mandatory for those on 4th and 5th grade travel teams. This is important to maintain appropriate numbers in the program and the quality of play. It is not mandatory for those playing travel in grades 6 and up but certainly strongly recommended.
The Madison Basketball Association (MBA) is a private, non-profit organization formed in 2011 to further organize, promote and teach youth basketball in the Borough of Madison.
