As part of our mission to promote involvement in youth basketball, we are pleased to provide the following information on youth basketball leagues and club teams available in Southern Arizona. This is informational only and we do not endorse any of the leagues or clubs listed.
Recreational Youth Basketball Leagues
Several organizations offer youth basketball leagues in Pima County. Parents should contact the leagues directly for information, including ages, season schedules, costs and other requirements. The leagues listed below are recreational leagues, meaning they generally accept individual signups rather than team sign-ups. We recommend that you click on the links below and then contact the league organizers directly for information to determine the league that is best for you and your child.
