General Specifics about EMB Registration and Season
In order to keep up our level of success, we will need VOLUNTEERS to COACH as well as ADMINISTRATE. Feel free to step up and be part of our next great season!! We also graciously welcome any funds through sponsorship support and continually rely on your charitable contributions to our Joyce Fox Scholarship Fund. Please check the box while registering to contribute in order to help those that cannot afford to play.
Our fees go to gym rentals, referees, uniforms, trophies, basketballs, and operating expenses. We have exceeded our capacity for the past 7 years and had to turn away over 100 players annually, so SIGN UP EARLY to get a spot to play.
TRYOUTS/EVALS are conducted for coaches to judge each players' abilities and thus equalize the teams. All teams in EMBL are drafted with PARITY as the ultimate goal.
D1 & D2 EXPLAINED:
As in years past, we have 2 different skill levels (Division 1 and Division 2) for ALL the BOYS groups (10U, 12U, 14U, and 18U.) Division 1 is generally comprised of the more skilled boys (TOP 20%) in the age group as they are older, bigger, stronger and faster. Both divisions are equally competitive.
