Orion Youth Basketball

08/17/2026

I hope everyone is off to a good start of the school year. With that, this is the kickoff for the Orion Youth Basketball 2026-2027 season. Please note that as of this moment, registration forms are not being distributed at the school. Please print off the FB post you read this on and spread the word to any parents that may not be on FB.

There are a handful of policy changes for rec and Pride basketball. Please see the registration form and contact me if there are any questions.

OYB is coordinating with Coach Anderson and Coach Cline at OHS for boys and girls clinics this year, as well as youth basketball night for boys and girls. More information on that to come.

If anyone is interested in coaching please take the opportunity and find that line on the registration forms. These kids aren't young forever and coaching is an awesome experience, especially for those who haven't coached before.

I'm an open book... feel free to message, text, call, or just chat it up with me at a game this year. I'm glad to field questions and receive feedback.

Have a great day.

I want to give Source One Graphics in Moline some love this morning. The pricing, lead time, and customer service exceeded my expectations. I'll definitely be working with them moving forward and recommend them for any of your Orion gear needs. Their pricing is fair and their service is fast.

Thursday night we had a large group of OYB players and coaches show up to support our high school teams. To everyone who helped make that night and the rec girls season happen, I sincerely thank you for supporting this program.
