Practice Schedule (November 10th - End of Season)
In the Winter season, we adjust our format slightly to accommodate players who participate in CYO concurrently.
In the Fall and Spring Seasons, the format for NBBA practices is to focus half the practice on fundamental skill development and the other half on team concepts.
In the Winter Season, each team will have a Team practice that focuses entirely on team concepts. We ask that all players fully commit to attending team practices. (See schedule below)
The second practice focuses entirely on fundamental skill development, and players can choose the day and time that works in their schedule from week to week. (See the Skill Session Schedule)
All players receive the same amount of time working on fundamentals, skills, and team concepts in the winter season as they do in the fall and spring.

What If I Play Another Sport?
It is possible for student-athletes to participate in the NBBA Travel Season while playing another spring sport. However, NBBA requires the student-athlete to meet the following requirements:
- Over the course of the season, student-athletes must attend at least 10 practices and 4 of the 6 tournaments. Given the fact the costs for the team remain constant, the dues for the season remain the same.
Financial Aid
- Financial assistance may be available for certain circumstances of financial hardship. Families must apply and be qualified to receive assistance. The approval process will be evaluated by the NBBA administration. Full assistance is available in exceptionally rare situations.
