The Athletic Programs Administration (APA) of the Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) runs citywide Youth Basketball Leagues during the winter months. Our recreation leagues are designed to give as many youth as possible the greatest benefits available from participation in an organized sport.

Players build coordination, speed, and strength while developing bonds with their teammates, and supportive relationships with positive adult role models. On and off the court, our coaches emphasize determination, team work, and respect.
