The basketball season runs from Thanksgiving to St. Patrick’s Day. Students in grades 5–8 participate at the Varsity and Junior Varsity levels in the Small School Independent League. Both girls’ and boys’ team practices are twice weekly, and focus on the fundamentals of the sport, such as dribbling, passing, and shooting. Games are also held twice weekly. Due to our recently upgraded and renovated gymnasium, many of the basketball games are held on Sea Crest’s campus.
