As our 2022 Youth Basketball League (YBL) season draws to a close, we’d like to send our heartfelt thanks to everyone who made this winter such a memorable experience for the youth in our community. With the support of our volunteer coaches and our generous league sponsors, the Y was able to welcome more than 1,000 young athletes back to our beloved YBL program.
At the Y, we know that our youth sports programs help to keep kids physically active. But, as we reflect on this wonderful season, we know that the impact youth sports program have on our young athletes reaches way beyond what happens between the lines on the basketball court. Besides being physically active, kids who play sports develop higher self-esteem, perform better in school, and work better in groups. Our YBL program teaches kids the fundamentals of the game while emphasizing the importance of teamwork. Above all, kids have a lot of fun, which was evident over the last several months on YMCA basketball courts throughout Will and Grundy Counties.
YBL BY THE NUMBERS
1,098 – Players
108 – Teams
412 – Games Played

The Y would also like to thank all the families, players, volunteer coaches and staff members who participated across our association’s programs, as well as the sponsors who helped make this season possible:
