Dear Parents,

Welcome to the 2011-2012 season of the Rockville Centre Basketball League. The RVCBL is an instructional recreation league that lets the players have fun while teaching basketball fundamentals, instilling concepts of team play and teaching good sportsmanship. The League has over 1100 players and your cooperation is necessary to ensure that it runs smoothly. With that in mind please consider the following:

TEAMS MAY BE CHANGED - 

            Because of the difficulty forming balanced teams, requests to put children together on a team will, for the most part, not be accommodated. Also, it may be necessary to move players from one team to another after the season has started. If that happens with your child, your cooperation and understanding will be appreciated.

COMMUNICATE WITH YOUR CHILDS COACH -   

           RVCBL rules dictates playing time depending on who is not present, therefore it is essential that the coach is informed if your child will be late or absent from a game. Please arrive ten minutes prior to the scheduled starting time for all games.

WEARING JEWERLY IS NOT PERMITTED -

            Players will not be allowed to enter a game if they are wearing jewelry. Parents of players in the Girls Program please take special note of this and schedule any new ear piercing accordingly.

RESPECT SCHOOL PROPERTY AND SCHOOL PERSONNEL -

            Please respect the school grounds and all school personnel. Do not let children roam the hallways or play on the elementary school stages. Do not bring basketballs into the school buildings at any time. The league will provide basketballs for games and coaches will provide basketballs for practice.

NO SPECTATORS ON COURTS -          

            By league rule, spectators are not allowed on the court at any time during a game. Please keep children off the courts during all time outs.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS -

Even with rising costs we were able to keep the registration fee unchanged this year because of our sponsors. Please support our sponsors and do not cut the sleeves or otherwise deface the team uniforms.

USE THE RVCBL LEAGUE WEB SITE –

Go to www.rvcbl.com for the most current forms, registration information, schedules, standings, weather cancellations and all other pertinent information.

Your cooperation in these matters is much appreciated. Good luck and have fun in the new season.

                                                                                         Sincerely,

                                                                                         The RVCBL Board of Directors
