WYSI League Descriptions
WYSI sponsors an in-house recreational basketball league for both boys and girls grades Kindergarten through 6th. They also have a competitive travel team program for boy’s grades 3rd through 6th. The in-house leagues will focus on teaching and improving basic fundamentals and team play.
