SILICON VALLEY NATIONAL JUNIOR BASKETBALL
SPRING OUTDOOR LEAGUE | PRE-FORM PLAYERS
In Spring League, there may be multiple levels of competition (depnding on number of teams within a division) to try and provide competitive games for both advanced/skilled players and new/developing players.
We try to separate them so that everyone has a chance to compete against players relatively of the same skill level if there are enough teams to do so.
The only way to have multiple competition levels is if there are enough teams/players to do so. For example, if there are 20 5th/6th grade teams and 10 register Level 2, 5 register 5th Level 1, and 5 register 6th Level 1, then there would be enough to have multiple competition levels. If 19 teams register level 2 and only 1 register Level 1 then the levels may be combined or adjusted by the league.
To balance competition and enhance gameplay, the league has the right to move players and/or teams between levels (and/or divisions if necessary). This especially applies to Free Agents. If after the Free Agent player evaluations, coaches or staff feel a player has registered in the incorrect level, a move up/down may be made to better suit the players skill level.
In regards to teams, teams may be moved up/down a competition level to attempt to have teams play against similar teams to create more competitive games.
Level 1 is the highest competition level designated for advanced/skilled teams and players. Example of Level 1 players would be All-Net players, skilled Divisional All-Stars, players on/from competitive AAU teams, school teams, etc.

Yes, there are 2 possible additional costs for players:
1.) PRACTICE GYM RENTAL FEES
2.) FREE AGENT COACH STIPEND
Read below for more info.
Parents/Players please be advised that additional costs may be incurred if your team plans to practice inside a gym. Unlike winter league, gym rental fees are not included within the league registration price. Not all teams choose to practice inside. During spring league, it is the responsibility of the coach/team to obtain gym space for practices. Very limited gym space will be made available by the league for teams to rent.
FOR TEAMS INTERESTED IN RENTING A GYM ON THEIR OWN:
Proof of insurance is available through the league for any team that finds a school/gym that requires it. If proof of insurance is needed, please fill out the insurance request form linked at bottom of the page.
NOT ON A TEAM YET? FREE AGENT?
For players who are not on a team yet and are looking to join a team, you are considered a Free Agent. Please follow the free agent process. The page you are currently on is for players on a pre-existing team. Free Agents that register to random teams will be removed from the team and risk not being able to participate.
