League Organization

Montgomery Kids Basketball is sponsored by Montgomery United Methodist Church and is associated with Upward Sports. The league is organized by school grade as follows (Our plan is to create an all-girls league for all ages. If we don’t have enough girls, teams will be co-ed). Some divisions will fill up before registration closes. Be sure to register early to ensure your spot! Our 1st & 2nd Boys and 3rd & 4th Boys teams fill quickly.

  1. Kindergarten or 5 years of age

  2. Grades 1-2

  3. Grades 3-4

  4. Grades 5-6

Although MKBB is associated with Upward Sports, we enforce local rules which are published on this site before online registration begins. Scores are kept for all games, regardless of level.  Upward substitution rules are enforced for all grades K-4 which provides equal playing time for all players.  Grades 5/6 allow the coach more flexibility in managing playing times while promoting fair game play; standings are posted and there is a year end tournament for this division only.  Experienced High School students and adults officiate all games. All coaches and assistant coaches are volunteers.

Every player must complete a skills evaluation test before being drafted on a team.  

ATTENTION: It is Mandatory for all participants to attend their scheduled Evaluation Day. If you DO NOT attend, you will forfeit participation in this league and NO REFUND will be issued. Team drafts are done by computer and the skills test scores are the basis of the draft.  This allows us to draft teams with fairly equal talent and provides for a more balanced league.

We do not honor carpool or friend requests.  Each volunteer coach is allowed to request one player whose parent will be designated as the assistant coach.

In previous years, we have had over 200 children in the MKBB program.  Obviously it requires a number of volunteers to run a league of this size. We need volunteers for coaches, team moms and dads, game day coordinators, practice night coordinators, board members, and registration support.  Click here to signup to volunteer! If you don’t see what you want to do, please let us know.
