The GCAA Basketball Program is now accepting applications for the 2008-2009 season. Please sign up before Sept 15, 2008 to lock in current rates. The fee will be $60 for 2nd Grade thru 8th Grade Intramurals while the fee will be $30 for K-1. GCAA, in existence for over 50 years, has run successful intramural and travel programs for an extended period of time with an extensive array of volunteers. The application can be downloaded from the GCAA website www.gc-aa.com Just click on the basketball link. A player must pre-register for intramurals in order to be eligible to participate in a travel try out. The majority of our intramural times this year will be afternoon slots at St. Paul's although we will have some limited morning times.

Early registration for the GCAA Program will ensure GCAA is allocated a fair share of prime Saturday St. Paul's time and weeknight practice time from the Rec Dept. We received very positive feedback from participants in our 2007-2008 season and we welcome you to talk to last year's parents and players about their experiences in our league. We need your help for GCAA to continue to run a successful program as our court time allocation allotment did not allow us to accomplish all our goals in 2007-2008. Please register for GCAA Basketball now to ensure your child gets a fair share of court time and has a positive experience for the 2008-2009 season.

Please help us by signing up for GCAA basketball now so we can make the 2008-2009 season the best yet!

After our successful start of Boys 2nd grade intramurals last year, GCAA intends to offer for the first time a 7th/8th grade boys intramural league. The informal 7th/8th Grade games will be played more than likely Saturday afternoons from 6:00-7:30PM. We realize there are a variety of conflicts so we will adjust roster size accordingly.

We will work around middle school sports schedules and other typical 7th/8th grade conflicts. We need court time to make it work so please sign up early. Should you have any questions, please email one of the following GCAA basketball directors.

Thank you for your continued support.
