⭐️ Can I have your attention please?⭐️

The Velma Youth Basketball Association is excited to tip-off the second season of the Southwest Oklahoma Youth Basketball Association league. SWOYBA was formed by area high school basketball coaches that want to invest and develop our elementary age kids in their skill, knowledge, and love for the game of basketball. We are thrilled to offer this to all of our 1st-6th grade students at Velma-Alma.

The following schools are a part of the SWOYBA:

Bray-Doyle
Central
Comanche
Duncan
Empire
Marlow
Walters
Waurika
Velma-Alma

There will be girls and boys divisions 1st-6th grade. The 1st-3rd grade divisions will be playing 3v3. The 4th-6th grade divisions will be playing 5v5. The games will start at the beginning of December and end in February. The games will be played on Saturday mornings. Practices can start the last week of October.

After our signups and the other schools complete their sign ups the area coaches will meet again to finalize schedules and locations of games.

If you have any questions please contact:
Katie Pogue [email protected]
Dana Lohrer [email protected].
Dalton Dismuke [email protected]

⭐️The sign up forms are being sent home today! The deadline to turn in the forms is Friday, October 17th! The cost will cover a reversible jersey top, end of season awards, and OSSAA officials. ⭐️

Shine on Comets!💫🤍

Comet Nation:

Tomorrow we kickoff the inaugural season of SWOYBA league. We are so excited to be a part of this developmental league for our young Comets. Please be patient and show grace. With this new league there will be some bumps in the road. The area coaches and directors have worked hard and will continue to work hard to see this league be beneficial for our young athletes.

A few FAQs-

There will not be a concession stand at the Marlow or Duncan sites. Central’s location we have not heard if they will have one or not. Parents please make sure your child has a water bottle.

Gametime: There are over 90 games scheduled! The host sites and officials will do their best to keep things moving. Please be respectful of teams and spectators arriving and leaving the facilities.

Admission: Ages 18-65 $5 (entry fees help pay the refs and provide for other league needs). Senior citizens and kids under 18 get in free.

If you have kids playing at multiple locations/times you will NOT have to pay to re-enter. Make sure you get a stamp before leaving a facility to re-enter or enter at another location.
