DYSports Events: A step above Rec/YMCA/Boys and Girls Club and a level below elite travel teams, this tournament is designed for boys’ and girls’ basketball teams developing their game. It’s an excellent opportunity for feeder/school teams, B-level or below select teams, and Rec/YMCA/Boys and Girls Club teams looking to take the next step. Our focus is to provide the best environment for teams to compete against similarly talented opponents.
Tournament Rules:
Home and Away: In the schedule, the team listed at the bottom is designated as the Home team (wearing White), while the team at the top is the Away team (wearing Dark).
For fifth grade divisions and younger, only Man-to-Man Defense is allowed. (Man-to-Man rules are detailed in the tournament rules.)
Each team is required to provide a parent to assist with the score clock/game sheet.
Division Eligibility Rule:
Divisions at DYSports tournaments are determined by grade. If a team has one or more players in a grade older than the division, those players must meet the age requirement to maintain eligibility. Specifically, the player's birthday cannot be before May 1st of the current DYSports season.
Example: If you are a 4th-grade boys team and have a 10-year-old 5th grader on your roster, that athlete cannot turn 11 years old before May 1st during the September 1–August 31 DYSports season. Otherwise, the team will be ineligible to compete in that division.
