Due to low registration and lack of facilities, CMRC will not be offering sessions for 10th-12th grade. There are other local rec councils that offer basketball leagues for this age group.
The cost for registration will be announced in the fall of 2024. All refunds are subject to a $25 administrative fee to cover CMRC costs. There are no refunds after the first practice or first session of Skills and Drills.
No uniforms will be ordered for Skills and Drills Clinic participants this year. If you have pinnies, please return them to the basketball program so they can be sanitized and redistributed.
The basketball program is transitioning to new leadership. We are currently recruiting for:
- Board Members
- Age Commissioners
- Coaches
If you have never coached before and are interested, please reach out – we would like to hold a Coach’s Clinic before the season begins. For more information, please email Kelly Beninghove at basketballchair@carrollmanor.org.
