Shorewood Hills Fall Youth Basketball Program 2026

The fall session of the Shorewood Hills Youth Basketball Program is open to Shorewood Hills Elementary School students and elementary-aged Village residents who will be enrolled in 1st-5th grade in the fall of 2026. The program aims to teach the fundamental rules and skills of basketball to beginners and intermediate-level players in a safe, fun, encouraging, and inclusive learning environment. Participants will build skills, strength, and confidence while learning the importance of good sportsmanship, physical fitness, and teamwork. No previous basketball experience is needed.


Please note that this is a community-based program and does not involve any organized team or league play. Our coaches typically are Village high-school students or UW students who are knowledgeable about basketball and looking to gain coaching and mentoring experience.

The fall session will last six weeks, beginning the week of September 7, 2026, and ending the week of October 12, 2026.

Each class will meet once per week at the Shorewood Hills Elementary School outdoor basketball courts, which are located on the south side of the elementary school.


Classes will be held on Wednesday afternoons from 4:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. Enrollment will be on a first-come-first-served basis.

Parents must complete the Participant Registration Form (linked below and available on the Village of Shorewood Hills’ website) before a child may participate in the program. The cost is $50 per child, although need-based scholarships may be available through the Shorewood Hills PTO.

The completed Participant Registration Form and fee are due to the Village Hall by August 31, 2026.

Please contact parent volunteer Ashby Kent Fox at ashbykfox@gmail.com if you have any questions.

Let’s fill the courts!
