MISSION: At the heart of the Stonington Youth Basketball lies a profound mission—to offer young boys and girls a golden opportunity to embrace the sport of basketball, fostering their growth and honing their skills within a nurturing and encouraging environment. Our ultimate aspiration is to witness the players’ continuous development and unwavering enjoyment of the game, ultimately propelling them to excel at the Middle School and/or High School level.
CORE VALUES: Sportsmanship, a positive attitude, teamwork, character, and work ethic form the foundation of our league’s core values. Embracing these principles wholeheartedly, we instill in our young athletes not just the physical aspects of the game but also the invaluable life skills that will shape their character and enrich their journey both on and off the court.
As we unite under these guiding principles, we endeavor to create not only skilled basketball players but also responsible and respectful individuals who carry these values with them throughout their lives. Together, we celebrate the spirit of sportsmanship, the power of teamwork, and the dedication to self-improvement, making Stonington Youth Basketball a place where dreams flourish and futures are shaped.
