Basketball Leagues Forming

Stafford County, Va. — It’s time for children and teenagers to sign up for a basketball league for Stafford County Parks and Recreation.

Boys and girls between the ages of eight and 17-years-old are encouraged to sign up in organized leagues that will play their games at middle schools in Stafford County on week nights and Saturdays.

Middle and high school students who plan to try out for their school teams should indicate their intention on their tryout form and their tryout fees will be refunded once they make the scholastic teams, according to Stafford officials.

Children and teenagers have until Sept. 30 to register. Tryout fees for children between eight and 12-years-old are $60 for county residents, $70 for non-county residents, and ages 13 through 17-years-old will pay $66 for county residents and $77 for non-county residents.

Late registrations should include a $10 late fee. Click here for more information and to contact Stafford County Parks and Recreation.
