Basketball

Commissioners: Christine Taylor and Dan Gallagher

Basketball is a TEAM sport that fosters sportsmanship, teamwork and enthusiasm in players of all ages.

Coaches and Volunteers Needed – In order for our Basketball programs to be successful, we need help from parents. We are in need of coaches, assistant coaches and volunteers to help with the 2019-2020 season. Anyone interested in helping, please contact the Youth Activities Office at 718-745-2027 or via email stanselmsyouthactivities@yahoo.com.  All coaches and volunteers must be Virtus trained. Trainings will be offered at St. Anselm Academy (dates TBD).
