The St. Hilary CYO
Basketball 2009 season was comprised of 26
teams with over 255 players. St. Hilary
CYO is an integral part of the Catholic
Youth Organization and sponsors teams to
play youth basketball in Tiburon for
boys and girls between 3rd and 8th grades.
Team formation is a
daunting task. The process will take
some time and will not be completed until
the end of October.
BASKETBALL REGISTRATION
Registration for the 2009/2010 CYO
Basketball season is now closed. Some
grades are full but some still have room.
If you would like to be put on the waiting
list for an available space, please
contact nhechtcyo@gmail.com.
Registration is for 3rd – 8th
grade boys and girls.
There are try-outs for 4th-8th
grades separating the children in “A” and
“B” level teams.
We
encourage everyone to participate in
player evaluations. Players wishing to
play at the “A” level are better evaluated
when participating with their peers
instead of being evaluated at the make-up
sessions. Anyone who does not
participate in evaluations will be placed
on the B team.
Tryout dates are as
follows:
Fri, Sept. 11 - 6th
Grade Boys 5:30-6:30p.m. Girls 6:30-7:30p.m.

The third-grade
level of St. Hilary basketball serves as a
fun introduction to CYO competition. The
coaches work with all players to teach
fundamental skills of dribbling, passing,
rebounding and shooting. They also
emphasize teamwork and good sportsmanship.
Teams have only one practice per week and
one scheduled game per week against
another third-grade CYO team from Marin.
To reinforce the introductory nature at
this level, no scores are registered
during the games. Game referees temper
their officiating to recognize the
beginning level of the players.
http://www.ymcasf.org/Marin/sports.html
offers a league for 1st and 2nd grade
girls and boys using 8ft rims and a
smaller sized basketball. The
games are at the YMCA in San Rafael.
Practices for St.
Hilary CYO basketball will begin mid
November.
4th-8th grades will
practice a minimum of twice a week.
Practices will be after school in various
gyms throughout Southern Marin.
All games are on
Saturday or Sunday with exact dates,
times and locations to be determined at the end Of
December.
Opening weekend is
January 2nd and 3rd, 2010.
There is a bye weekend for all teams
Presidents day weekend, February
13th and 14th. There are games on MLK
weekend and the weekend at the end of ski
week.
Playoff weekend is March 6th and 7th.
The 13th and
14th of March will be the Championships.
