Youth Recreational Basketball League
Whether you want your child to develop fundamental basketball skills, refine specific skills, or simply get a good workout on the court, Asphalt Green has a basketball program for your family.

Introduction to Team Play
Our youth basketball leagues will focus on introducing children to playing basketball in a team environment through gameplay. Children will improve basketball skills, offensive and defensive strategies and comprehension of rules through team practice and games. The first three weeks of class, players will go through a skill assessment clinic run by coaches with collegiate experience to gauge abilities. The remainder of the term will feature team practices and games, led by the same clinic coaches.

These sessions will be geared towards improving specific skills in a controlled environment without the pressure of competition. Our recreational league is our in-house league. All games take place at our Battery Park City campus. Participants will receive a jersey, head coach and gameplay each week.

The Asphalt Green travel basketball program has grown leaps on bounds over the years. During the upcoming year (2024-2025) we will have 24 travel basketball teams. Why is this important to you?
