Hamilton Jr. Chargers

The teams for the 2019-2020 Junior Chargers have been completed and posted on the website.

If you are on a team where it says "TBD" next to the head coach, please give some thought about stepping forward and coaching. You don't have to be the next John Wooden to coach at our level. But we do need a parent coach with every team. If you are interested, please let Rob Reischel (robreischel@gmail.com) know as soon as possible.

Uniform and Spirit Wear site is active. Check out the Uniforms and Spirit Wear tab for details.

The purpose of the Hamilton Junior Chargers Girls Basketball program is to give 4th through 8th grade girls who are planning on attending Hamilton High School a place to develop their game, have fun and play competitive basketball

Each team will:

• Hold 2 practices a week (most weeks). Practices are 1.5 to 2 hours long

• Play in a league (approximately 16 games). Games on Sundays

• Play in a total of 6 Tournaments (Hamilton Tip Off Classic + 5 of coach’s choice)

• Most teams end up playing 32 to 40 games between November 1 and March 31

• Play every eligible player* in every half of every game (playing time is not equal)

• 4th Grade Teams will be split into 2 even teams if we have enough players

• Grades 5 – 8 will be divided into A and B Level Team
