2025-2026 LHYA COBA Basketball

LHYA proudly participates in the COBA basketball league. This level is one step above our Recreational offering and is intended to provide our more dedicated athletes with an opportunity to face tougher competition and let their talents and skills thrive. Interested participants will go through a tryout process to determine if they will be selected to participate. Any players that don't make a COBA roster can be re-registered into our Rec program.

COBA requires a larger financial and time commitment. With COBA, we try and guarantee 15-20 games per season plus participation in the end of season COBA tournament. COBA is broken down in the following age brackets

3rd Grade
4th Grade
5th Grade
6th Grade

2025-2026 Rec Basketball

Thanks for choosing LHYA basketball for your child's basketball experience. We are a Volunteer-run Nonprofit Association. We cannot wait to get your player out on the Court, learn new skills, make new friends, and have a blast!

Basketball is a great sport your child can start at an early age. Playing basketball helps children learn basic coordination and team-building skills with an added bonus of making new friends along the way.

The Rec Division consists of the following levels of play:
  • 2nd Grade MINI Division 
  • 3rd/4th Grade JUNIOR Division 
  • 5th/6th Grade SENIOR Division 

Unfortunately, due to the size of the program and the coordinating of teams/gym space, we are unable to honor carpool requests.

Registration will close on October 12th. Evaluations are tentatively scheduled for the week of October 29th (more details to come). Mini Division will not participate in an Evaluation but will be randomly assigned a team. Practices will begin in November with games beginning Saturday, December 6th and will end with a single elimination tournament that will take place on the weekend of February 21.

Games will be played at our home gyms as well as away games against teams in the Quad City Conference (last years participants were Northridge, Johnstown, Utica, and Newark Catholic). All players will receive a reversible game jersey, a pair of game shorts, a and a basketball. Time commitment is two practices per week, and approximately10 regular season games (played on Saturday) plus end of the year tournament. 

All players will be expected to participate in a league and sport fundraiser. Registration includes an option to opt out for $20.

Thank You for choosing LHYA basketball for your child's basketball experience. We are a volunteer-run nonprofit Association that serves the Licking Heights community but is open to neighboring communities and their families.

The K-1st Mini Clinics consists of the following:

  • Skills Development and the understanding of basketball terminology are the main focus of these clinics

This will be an 8 week mini clinic program starting in December 2025. The young athletes will participate in a series of drills and mini-games whose goal is to teach them basketball terminology and basic skills such as dribbling, passing and shooting. We will also emphasize pivoting and other important body movements. The last mini clinic will consist of 3 vs 3 games where the kids can showcase everything they have learned. Clinic participants will receive 1 LHYA T-Shirt and 1 basketball along with a minimum 8 weeks of clinics. Cost is $100 per participant.  

All players will be expected to participate in a league fundraiser. This can be opted out of for a $20 fee.
