Join Youth Basketball League this Fall!

Our Youth Basketball League invites kids aged 5-9 to join an exciting and supportive space, where they’ll develop their basketball skills while having fun!

Participants will be introduced to the game’s essential techniques, including dribbling, passing, and shooting, all under the guidance of experienced coaches. In addition to learning the sport, children will cultivate friendships, build self-esteem, and experience the value of teamwork and sportsmanship.

We ensure that every child receives equal playing time, encourage fair play, and ensure everyone can participate. Coaches emphasize positive competition and a collaborative team environment. Our league is not just about playing basketball—it’s about fostering a love for the game, instilling life skills like perseverance and respect, and helping young athletes grow both on and off the court.

The season runs from November 16 to December 22, all at the Summit YMCA. We hope to see you and your child there!

BERKELEY HEIGHTS YMCA | SUMMIT YMCA | THE LEARNING CIRCLE YMCA

In 1886, we were founded as the Young Men’s Christian Association, but today, we are The Y; an association that values, and is made stronger by, its diverse people. We stand for youth development, healthy living and social responsibility — For a better us. We are committed to creating equal opportunity for all regardless of gender, age, disability, income, ethnicity, sexual orientation or religious affiliation. We strive to create a welcoming and inclusive culture in which our four core values — responsibility, honesty, caring and respect — are integral to everyday operations.

Each year, as one of the area’s leading 501(c)3 charitable organizations, the Summit Area YMCA serves more than 15,000 individuals with our free and fee-based programs and services in an area spanning the New Jersey communities of Berkeley Heights, Gillette, Millburn, New Providence, Short Hills, Springfield, Stirling and Summit. Our history is rooted in working side-by-side with our neighbors to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive. Through the generosity of our members, donors, and partners, we are able to offer financial assistance for our programs and services to those in need.

Please note that the section of Maple Street closest to the Summit YMCA will be closed from approximately 7 AM to 11 AM on Sunday, May 5, for our Mother’s Day 5K. Please use Cedar Street to access the public lot that is next to our building.
