What is travel basketball?

If you are new to Farmington's Travel Basketball program, here is a brief overview:

Registration

  • Registration typically opens early July.


Scholarships

  • Limited scholarships are available. 


Tryouts

  • Are held in September.


Length of Season

  • Practices start in October with tournaments starting the first weekend in November and running through March. 


Practices

  • We typically have two practices a week - will range in days and can include Wednesdays and Fridays.
  • The start times are the preference of the head coach. Most teams usually start at 6pm, 6:30pm, 7pm or 7:30pm. But all teams could have an occasional 8pm start.

  • Teams play in weekend tournaments over the season. The final tournament will be the State Tournament in the metro.


Volunteer Requirements

  • Each family is asked to fulfill (2) volunteer shifts regardless of number of registered players in a household, and provide a $400 volunteer check to be collected at tryouts. Checks will ONLY be cashed at the end of season if volunteer shifts have not been completed.
  • ONLY 1 check per household is required.


Uniform

  • The required items are as follows:
  • Jersey
