Winter Basketball  Team Composition Guidelines have been revised by the MYBA in June 2022. Before registering your player for travel basketball this season, please take a moment to understand the new qualification rules. 

Summary of the revised guidelines:

• School attendance is the primary determining factor of an athlete's eligibility for an association
  • Public school attendees may play for the association in the area of their school
  • Home school attendees may play for the association in the area of their home address
  • Charter and private school attendees may play for the association in the area of their school, or in the area of their home address
    • Only the primary address on file with a player's school will be accepted as a "home address" for charter, private and home schooled attendees 
• The changes will be in effect for the  2022-23 winter travel season
  • There is no “grandfather” clause
• Reasons the MYBA Compliance and Eligibility Task Force voted upon these changes:
  • The ability to verify the residency of participating players is difficult
  • The school that a player attends is a more efficient and effective way to prove/verify/confirm eligibility

Your player is eligible for Park Center Traveling Basketball if he/she/they:

• attends an elementary or middle school in the Park Center or Brooklyn Center High School attendance area
• attends a private or charter school outside the Park Center or Brooklyn Center High School attendance area, but holds a primary residence on file with the school within the Park Center or Brooklyn Center High School attendance area
• is home schooled within the Park Center or Brooklyn Center High School attendance area
