GIRLS BASKETBALL 4-ON-4 LEAGUE

Looking for a great opportunity to play basketball, work on your skills and have some fun?  This 4-on-4 League is the perfect option for you. 4-on-4 allows players to touch the ball more often and have more space to operate and improve their skills. Players will sign up as “individuals” and be placed on teams that morning based on age and skills by the O’G coaching staff. This 4-on-4 League is open to all kids in and out of Bishop O’Gorman Catholic School system. We previously have had this league at night and seem to run into too many conflicts. If our numbers happen to warrant, we will have a 4-on-4 Half-court League.  Hoping to have some varsity players help coach the girls during game activity. We are excited to be able to offer this unique opportunity to gain valuable game experience.
