New Basketball Athletes will need to attend the assessment practice on December 8, 2024 at 2pm at the Lincoln Community Center (2010 First Street, Lincoln). This is very important and will allow us needed information to place you with the appropriate team.
West Placer Athletics,
For basketball & bowling registration Please use the SONC registration website to register in Placer County for our West Placer Athletics Team. SONC registration process is for all of Northern California. You will get multiple email reminders from SONC about registration.
Both sports will have a limit on size of our team this year. If you want to do bowling and basketball sign up on November 1 to get in. If we have too many athletes register you will get an email confirmation that you have been added to the waiting list.
Once we have confirmed current athlete applications and commitment to attending practices and competition then we will know if we have space for anyone on the wait list. Please check your schedule and don't register if you cannot commit to practice and competition.
You MUST have a current application on file with SONC to sign up and participate. If they do not have an approved application by our assessment date you will be removed from the West Placer Roster. You can check your status by clicking status check. Please don't overwhelm their system if you know your application is current. If you are a current athlete SONC sends you a reminder when you need to renew your application. Applications are good for 3 years.
The basketball season will be from January 2025 through March 2025. The Invitational (Zebra Classic) is on a Sunday in February and attendance will be determined by each head coach. SONC Regional Competition will be on either March 15 or 16 location TBD. Which day will be determined later by SONC based on your team level. Please check your schedules to make sure you can attend the March dates before you commit to the team. Teams will be determined early December so no late entries will be accepted.
This all takes planning so please sign up when registration opens. Even if you have participated before you still need to register ever season. Basketball practices maybe played on different nights in different locations. The availability of the gyms and my head coaches are what dictates which night a team will play. The teams are formed based on the athlete's skill level so we can play competitively against other teams at the competitions. I will not know what night your athlete will practice until after we have evaluated everyone and formed teams.
Bowling will be on Saturday mornings at Strikes in Rocklin. We will have a Bowling Regional on Saturday March 1st. We still have to confirm dates with Strikes and will post when we have confirmation.
We always need coaches, if you would like to volunteer to coach please let me know by email and go to the same registration page and register as a coach. You must fill out the volunteer application to be a coach. Go to SONC.org to start the process.
All COACHES should register on the SONC website as a coach so SONC can check your status and inform me that you wish to coach.
Please let me know if you have any questions. We look forward to another fun Winter season!
