PROGRAM ALIGNMENT
The Juanita Basketball Association (JBA) program is the feeder program to the Juanita High School Boys Basketball program and organizes select teams for 4th through 8th graders to compete in the ETL and PEAK leagues.  All players must reside within the Juanita High School boundaries.

Players for these teams are selected through a try out process and all interested players are encouraged to participate. All try-outs are held at Juanita High School at the dates and times announced shortly after start of school year. Team selection is based on player skills, potential, attitude, and effort. Making a team one year does not guarantee a player will make the team the next year. In fact, historically there are always roster changes from one year to the next. All players need to attend both try-out dates for their grade level.

PROGRAM GOALS AND PHILOSOPHY
The goal of our program is to assist the student-athlete who is motivated to play basketball at a higher level. We do this by providing a positive environment that stresses fundamentals, teamwork, and dedication to your team and yourself. Through basketball, we strive to teach our players life skills that will make them successful and outstanding citizens.

We are excited about the upcoming year. Each year we strive to build upon our prior successes and to minimize our weaknesses. Our coaching staff and other key volunteers complete the support system that is so important for our program to continue to reach new levels of success.

PROGRAM STRUCTURE
This program is a 501(c)(3) non-profit and is governed by by-laws with Officers and a Board of team representatives. We encourage all interested parents to be involved with the leadership of this exciting program.
