Youth Basketball

2021 Youth Basketball

Brighton Recreation Center will be canceling our winter youth basketball league due to Adams County’s move to the new Red Level - Severe Risk by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) and the inability to access the needed gym space to properly run the program. As we approach January, we will evaluate current guidelines and determine at that time if an untraditional form of play will be permitted and how we can best serve the youth in our community. Thank you for your understanding.  

The City of Brighton’s Youth Basketball program focuses on fundamentals, sportsmanship, safety, and enjoyment.  There isn’t a better way to introduce your son or daughter to the sport of basketball.

• Youth Basketball is offered each winter from approximately mid-January through the first week of March.
• Games are held on Saturdays between 8 AM and 3 PM.
• Practices are held once a week for 6-7 year olds and twice a week during weekday evenings at local schools for 8 year olds and up. Coaches select the times, but they do not start before 4 PM and do not finish later than 9 PM.
• Coaches offer equal playing time to each player.

For additional information or to register, contact the Brighton Recreation Center at 303-655-2200.

The success of the program depends on parent involvement. We need your help as volunteer coaches and officials. If you’re interested or have questions about coaching, contact:
