The best way to ensure your son or daughter is registered for the Spring or Fall seasons is to register as early as possible. The Spring season deadline is March 1; and the Fall season deadline is August 1. HYBA makes every possible attempt to place as many young people as possible.
Registration is $125.00 for Players, $600 for Travel Teams, and $700 for Recreation Teams.
HYBA’s enrollment is composed of young persons who have a genuine passion for basketball. HYBA’s level of play is better than any other recreation league in Maryland, detailed in the Summer 2001 issue of Youth Sports Magazine.

The boys and girls clinics are a unique opportunity for young players (grades kindergarten, first, and second) to start the game of basketball without the worries of structured competitive play. While every other league in HYBA has two referees per game and follows league play (usually standard high school basketball rules or a variation thereof), the clinics are composed of volunteer coaches and designed to take the young players through the fundamentals of basketball through proven drills and practice games. The progress our young players make every year is astounding. Our clinic formula for our kindergarten, first, and second grade players continues to be successful for over twenty years. Clinics are divided into both boys and girls clinics.
