Program Format
1st & 2nd Grade:  A clinic is offered at this level to introduce participants to the fundamental motor skills necessary for participation in the sport.  The clinic will consist of five, 1-hour sessions held on the following Sundays:  October 25th, November 1st, 8th, 15th, 22nd.  All clinic sessions will be at Wahoo Elementary School.  The girls clinic will be held at 6pm while the boys will be at 7pm.  Eddie Couch will be the clinic's lead instructor.  He will be assisted by Matt Murren.

3rd & 4th Grade:
  Games are played on Saturdays between 8am and 2pm.  Teams will play a six-game round robin schedule.  League play is tentatively scheduled to begin on Saturday, January 9th.  Games are officiated but game scores will not be kept.

5th & 6th Grade: 
Games are played on Saturdays between 8am and 2pm.  Teams will play a six-game round robin schedule.  League play will begin on Saturday, November 7th and be finished by Christmas.  Games are officiated and game scores will be kept.  NOTE:  THE LEAGUE SHOULD NOT CONFLICT WITH THE LOCAL CLUB BASKETBALL PROGRAMS.

Equipment
All players must wear tennis shoes with non marking soles.  Basketballs will be provided.

Uniforms (3rd-6th Grade)
Youth participating in Wahoo Parks and Recreation youth sports need to have two uniform t-shirts, one red and one blue.  The playing schedule dictates which color shirt to wear for each game.  These shirts are used for all youth sport programs and are available in a variety of youth and adult sizes and can be purchased at the Civic Center for $6 each.

Rosters
Team rosters for 5/6 grade teams are formed via coach's draft (except out of town teams) while 3/4 grade team rosters are formed via random selection.  Parents may request their son/daughter be placed on a team with one other child for carpooling purposes.  The request must be made by both parties (not all requests may be honored).  This information needs to be indicated on the registration form.  Once teams are formed, coaches are responsible for contacting players on their rosters to set up practices and distribute information.

Coaches
Wahoo Parks and Recreation utilizes volunteer coaches for all youth sport programs.  All head coaches are required to attend the coaches meeting.  Instruction on general coaching philosophy and principles as well as sport-specific information will be discussed.

Schedules
Playing schedules will be available after the coach’s meeting at the Civic Center or on this website.

Miscellaneous
Participants and their parents/guardians should be aware that there is a risk of injury during participation in Wahoo Parks and Recreation youth sports due to the inherent nature of the activities.  Individuals participate in Parks and Recreation youth sports at their own risk.
