JUNIOR JAZZ LEAGUE RULES CAN BE FOUND HERE
The Jr. Jazz program is a great way for youth to learn the fundamentals of basketball with an emphasis on fun and fair play. The Rookie League is for Kindergarten and 1st-2nd graders, which focuses on learning the rules and fundamentals of basketball. The Jr. Jazz league is for grades 3-8.
Our league focuses on and promotes the "recreation" aspect of youth sports (see Youth Programs Mission & Goals below, as applicable to all youth programs):
- League is programmed in various aspects in an effort to promote FUN over wins and losses.
- Teams are compiled as a result of many variables, but specifically: reported skill level, current age and school.
- There are no playoffs, standings, or league champions.
- We do keep score and consequently indicate who wins and losses, but this information is not published after the fact.
- Coaches are committed to:
- Ensure all players play equal amounts of time, and have a fair opportunity to learn every position, if desired.
- Promote good sportsmanship.
- Respect other coaches, players, staff members and officials.
- Playes MAY NOT PLAY DOWN FROM THEIR GRADE/AGE LEVEL, but may PLAY UP if they are capable and desire to do so.

- Jr. Jazz Jersey
