De Pere Basketball

Registration is now open for De Pere Basketball Skills Leagues and Booster Club teams grades 1st through 8th.  The registration links can be found on the home page below this message. 

 A few important notes about the registration process, please take a few minutes to read in entirety:

• All of the important dates for the youth opportunities can be found in the “Important Dates” documents located on the home page below.
• There is a description below of opportunities at each grade level.  
• We highly encourage all YOUTH parents to attend the informational meetings.  The head varsity coaches will go over their respective youth programs in detail and be available to answer any questions you may have.  The boys and girls programs are structured somewhat differently so please attend the appropriate meeting.  Here are the dates and times:  
  • Girls – Wednesday, September 11th 7:00pm – High School Auditorium
  • Boys – Wednesday, September 11th 7:45pm – High School Auditorium
• If you have never been through the registration process, the webpage will prompt you to first create a “Sports Engine” account.  If you have registered in the past, your existing UN and PW will allow you to go directly into the registration.  The site should remember and pre-populate any information you had on file from a prior registration.
• The boys and girls registrations are separate.  If you have one of each, please complete the two separate registrations.  If you have more than one of the same gender, please register them all before checking out. 
• Very important – some of the age groups will have multiple program options.  For example, a 4th grade boy will have the option to sign up for Skills League and/or a Booster Club team.  Please sign up for ALL programs you are planning to do at this time in this one registration.  The program does not allow you to go back in and add on a program at a later date.  In the case that you change your mind in the future and need to add or remove a program, please contact me directly and I will help you. 
• The Booster Club Programs for both boys and girls require that every player purchase a Booster Club jersey and Booster Club shorts.  We encourage players to save on their cost and use their jersey and/or shorts from the prior season if they still fit and are in good shape.  In an effort to control our inventory, we have included in the registration an option to purchase both jerseys and shorts.  Due to the very high number of players we have in several grades, we are not able to take number request.  If you order a new jersey you will be given the same number you had last year.  If this is your first year, you will be assigned a number.  We apologize but this is the only way we can keep track so we don’t have an overlap in numbers.  In several grades we have more than 50 players participating.    
• The Booster Club subsidizes full uniforms for our 8th grade boys and girls players.  We ask the parents to pay the same $40 they always paid for Booster Club jersey and shorts ($20 each), and the Booster Club with pay the additional $20 or so to cover the full uniform cost.  We will have a uniform sizing for all the 8th grade players.
• ***This is new – Rather than taking orders for shooting shirts for our Booster Club teams at a later date, we have incorporated that order in our registration.  Anyone playing on a Booster Club team will get a new shooting shirt with name on back and the cost is $30.
• ***This is new – The Booster Club program is no longer supporting the Foxview League for either boys or girls.  As long as we have enough coach’s, every player will have an opportunity to play on a Booster Club team but we will no longer have Foxview League as an option.  If you have questions in regards to this change, please attend the parents meeting or contact Coach Winchester or Coach Boileau directly.
• ***This is new - Last year our 3rd-8th grade Booster Club teams participated in the Bay Area Developmental League(BADL) for the first time.  We are again going to participate in this league.  The league charges us a fee of $50 for each 3rd grader and $60 for each 4th-8th grader.  This fee is now incorporated in the registration.
• ***This is new - We are no longer going to charge a $10 golf outing fee to Booster Club particpants.       
• Registration Deadlines:
  • September 23rd - Boys and Girls Booster Club Teams 2nd-8th grade
  • October 2nd - Girls 3rd-4th Grade Skills League
  • October 29th - Boys and Girls 1st-2nd Grade Coed Skills Clinic and Boys 3rd-4th Grade Skills League
