Age Brackets
Competitive teams will be formed in the following age brackets at the beginning of each season in September.

Separate minor and major teams in each age bracket may be formed based on registration numbers and coach availability.

*The number of teams in each bracket depends on registration numbers, available coaches and available gym time. Minor and Major teams may be combined to form a Major team, as required.
Competitive Season
Competitive teams participate in games as part of the Ontario Basketball League - East (OBL-East) (formerly Eastern Ontario Basketball Association (EOBA)).
A typical season includes try-outs in September with games running from the middle of October to the middle of May (length of season depends on the age bracket).
Once formed, teams typically start the year with a pre-season tournament, will play 10-12 regular season games and will participate in an OBL-East year-end tournament. Coaches may elect to add additional games throughout the season.
Typically, competitive teams travel to at least one out-of-town tournament. Travel, meal and accommodation charges are the responsibility of players/parents.
Competitive Game Schedule
For planning purposes OBL-East games for each age bracket are scheduled on pre-assigned weekends that are announced at the beginning of the season.
Specific game times, locations and opponents will be posted as the season progresses.
