Center Grove Boys Basketball League Travel Division- Hoops Overview

Registration 

The registration is now open for travel league only. 

You can register by visiting https://www.cgbbl.com/home. The player and volunteer coach registration deadline for the travel division is Thursday, September 5th at 9PM. A $20 non-refundable registration fee is required. For players making a travel team, this will be applied to their dues. 

 Rec League registration will open after Travel Basketball Evaluations in early September. 

Eligibility

Players must live in the Center Grove School District or attend a Center Grove School. Players must be in 2nd through 6th grade. They are not allowed to play up a grade. If the school they attend has an Indiana Ball team, they will need to play for the school they attend or have approval to play for Center Grove prior to making a team.

Cost

If the player is selected for a travel team, there will be an additional cost of $255 which will be due after teams are selected. The travel cost has been reduced this year to a total of $275 to help relieve the gate fee cost set by Indiana Ball.

Teams

There will be up to 3 teams per grade with 8-9 players per team for 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th grades. There will be 1 team for 2nd grade.
