The Town of Brookline offers four basketball programs for boys and girls ranging from kindergarten through high school:

 

• Town Travel League: This is a competitive league for boys (grades 4 - 8) and girls (grades 4 - 8) living in/ attending school in Brookline. Tryouts are required for this program and not every player who attends tryouts is guaranteed to make a team as there may be cuts. (see Tryouts & Registration)

• Joel M. Noe Youth Recreation League for boys and girls grades 3 - 8 living in/ attending school in Brookline. This program is a very good place to start for players who are new to playing organized basketball

• Rec-Plus: Brookline Rec and the BBA inaugurated this program a couple of years ago intended for Rec League players eager to work on their game. Sessions held on Sundays

• Joel Noe Basketball Clinic for boys and girls grades K - 2

• Brookline High School Recreation League for BHS students who are NOT members of the freshman, JV or varsity basketball teams

 

Players are not permitted to play in both the Travel and Joel Noe League programs.

 

Financial assistance with program registration fees may be available from the Recreation Department.
