About the 3rd Grade Program 

King Philip Metrowest Basketball

3rd Grade Boys and Girls (Plainville, Norfolk, Wrentham)

The King Philip Basketball Association (KPBA) is proud to offer a 3rd grade, foundational, competitive basketball program. KPBA is the feeder program for the high school girls and boys teams, and recognizes that early skill development translates to future success. Your child will learn basketball fundamentals and strategy, and compete in games against other area programs. Specific details are below:

Game Details: 10 games, 8.5 ft hoops, 4 vs. 4, one game per weekend in December/January/February, typically on Sundays.

Game Locations: At area gyms versus other travel teams. Past programs have included Quincy, Lakeville, Sharon, Attleboro, and Norton. Travel has been as far as Quincy/Lakeville and as close as Mansfield.

Practice Details: 2 nights per week at area gyms, starting in November (possibly October) and running through the end of February.

Registration: Cost for 2023-2024 to be determined. Will include a reversible practice jersey, reversible game jersey and shorts, as well as a personalized shooting shirt.

Evaluations: Historically, there have been no cuts for this program. Teams will be divided with equal talent depending on numbers.

Coaches: If interested in coaching there will be a checkbox to note that during the team registration (not the tryout registration).  The team registration happens once your player is assigned to a team.
