Description of service

I paid $175 for a season of youth basketball for my child.The fee included the registration, team jersey,practices,traveling to areas for games,occasionally.There were 10 games in all for this age category.We did not meet the playoffs or championship so it was only 10 games instead of 12.


Review of Service

My child played for our County of residence at the recreation park.They have many more sports other than basketball to participate in for ages up to 17.I was happy that most of the kids were from my child's school and class.It made my child more comfortable with the other children.the coaches were very professional and fun loving.They were very sensitive to the childrens needs and helpful to the parents.They had the parents involved with the sport the whole time and encouraged to motivate.I feel i paid a fair price.I wish it was cheaper,but sometimes I could not make the trips and had to have my child carpool,which was included in the price if needed.


Tips

Sign up your children at their local recreation parks.Prices vary by sport and by city and state.Your child will gain much confidence an skill to themselves if you get involved.
