Central Kitsap Youth Athletics (CKYA) invites youth ages 5-14 to register for basketball, whether you're looking for a place to start or aiming to further develop your skills. Join the excitement and become part of our team!

Why Choose Us?

All CK Youth Athletics staff and volunteers strive to instill a basketball philosophy in all our young athletes. Our philosophy includes:

• Good sportsmanship

• Sound morals

• Honorable values

We believe our philosophy will train our athletes to become future leaders both on and off the court with a strong discipline, defense, and hustle.

This season, CKYA Basketball is expanding our "in-house" capabilities by adding AA, A, B, C and D strings, along with maintaining E and EE strings locally. This allows the teams to have more centralized practice and game locations, along with no boundaries.

Who is Eligible?

Eligibility is determined by:

• Age

• There are NO boundaries for ALL STRINGS (AA, A, B, C, D, E, and EE)
  
  (***UPDATE AS OF 10/16, REGISTRATION FOR AA, A AND B STRINGS IS NOW OPEN. DEPENDING ON THE AMOUNT OF REGISTRATIONS, UPPER-LEVEL STRINGS COULD BE COMBINED TO FILL TEAMS.***)
