1) Provide ALL participants with a positive experience.
2) Inspire each player to continue playing and to develop their skills.
3) Teach life lessons through positive interaction.
4) Winning is an outcome, it is NOT an objective.
The Grades 9-12 In-House program provides boys who attend Eden Prairie schools with an opportunity to compete and to develop their skills. The league is designed to be competitive as well as to give all participants an equal opportunity to play. It is the coach’s responsibility to rotate the players.

Grades 9-12 In-House Program:
The charter of the league is to have fun playing basketball with and against your friends. The In-House program is for boys in Grades 9-12 who do not play on a high school team and elect only to play in the In-House program. Players are NOT allowed to play up (or down) a grade.
All teams in the In-House Grades 9-12 play their games in the EP League, which is all Eden Prairie Teams. All games are played at the EPHS Activity Center.
Volunteers: For the EPBBA to run a successful basketball program, we need volunteers to coach. Please indicate at least one volunteer job on the registration form.
