Basketball Program for 5 Yr Old?

Somehow we missed tball (and cant get anyone to respond thru phone or email) and soccer. We werent sure about football this early, but my son really enjoys basketball. I know at KYA, they cant play at 5 yet, but arent there UPWARD programs??
Thanks ladies!

What can I do next?

Try V-start at Velocity Sports (Southlake, Coppell and Highland Village)... they've got a cool new program for 5-6 yr olds that gets them ready for all around sports skills. Girls can do it too!

YMCA does basketball for 5 year olds too. YMCA is also accepting late apps for fall tball/baseball.

A.--don't know where you live but Upward is a great program and offered at churches around the Metroplex. Upward offers basketball, soccer and flag football, but not all churches have every one of the leagues. Check www.upward.org to find a program near you. I do know that soccer and flag football are offered at Trietsch MUMC in Flower Mound (www.tmumc.org), and Lakeland offers basketball in Lewisville. It's a fabulous program for five year olds--all kids get equal playing time. I'm sure your child (and you) will be blessed by the experience.

Yes.. Upward is an incredible program. First Baptist Grapevine offers this program. Sign up begins in September. Practices begin December 5th and the season starts in January.
Call ###-###-#### and ask to speak to Marnie. She can give you all the information you need or go to www.vinerec.com
