Program One (Saturday Skills League & Clinic) –
Grades 3 – 6
Program I Purpose: This
program is designed for skill development and introduction to
game situations. This level provides a fun level of learning the game.
The purpose of this program is to start to introduce competitive play with
less focus on winning. Individual development is emphasized. This level
will allow the boys to play games with teams from their own community.
This program will allow boys with different skill levels to compete
on the same team, allowing the learning experiences this format provides.
There are two separate clinics for Program I

K-2 Program is a co-ed program and is a combined
effort between the FBC and the NLGYBA. The K-2 program runs from the
beginning of October through the middle of November held on Saturdays at

Program Two
(Traveling Tournament Teams)– Grades 3-8:
Program Purpose: This
program is designed to provide competitive play for those boys who want to
compete at a higher level. This program will allow boys with similar
skills to compete on the same team, allowing the learning experiences
this format provides. This level will allow us to be competitive with
other schools' top teams. Teams will play competitively in weekend
tournaments in and around Northeast Wisconsin. There will be 1- 2
practices a week for each team.
Team Make up: 7-8 players
on a team. Goal is to have more teams with fewer players to allow for
more playing time. Additional coaches
will need to be secured to reach our goal.
*3rd

*5th
thru 8th grade: Teams will be divided by best 7-8
players and then the next best 7-8 players and so on.
