We have incorporated procedures to accomplish this goal by making all players go through a skills evaluation process (except for training league) and limiting special requests (players &amp; coaches) that would impact the competitiveness of the league. We also feel that players whose skill levels exceed their grade level are better suited to play up against more experienced players and thus may be asked to play up a level. This benefits both the player and league.<\/p>\n<p>Remember this is recreational basketball and our goal is for the girls and boys to have fun in a competitive atmosphere. The more balanced the league usually the more fun the season will be.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"man\">Volunteers Needed!<\/h4>\n<p><strong>The PBGYAA is an ALL-VOLUNTEER organization.<\/strong> Running the program takes many hours, many people and a great deal of effort to make it successful and financially viable.<\/p>\n<p>We think that teaching girls and boys about the value of competition and teamwork is a valuable life lesson and that they will remember their participation through their whole life. That\u2019s why we volunteer our time. We want it to be the best it can be.<\/p>\n<p>So, please consider putting some time back into the program to compensate for what you and your children gain from the program. Together, we can continue to build the program for ourselves and for others to come.
