2022-2023 Youth Basketball Programs

For the 2022-2023 season we will be running a combined basketball program with players from the Lake Forest Recreation Department. Games and practices will rotate between Lake Bluff and Lake Forest. This will allow us to expand our leagues into age groups for which we traditionally have lacked the enrollment to run a successful program.

Volunteer Coaches

We are always looking for parents to volunteer as coaches! For details or to become a volunteer coach, please at call Rosie Aliperta 847-457-7337.
