About Us

PROGRAM

The Larchmont-Mamaroneck Basketball Association (L.M.B.A) is Larchmont and Mamaroneck's town basketball league, offering instructional clinics for grades 1st through 3rd and league play for grades 4th through 12th. All boys and girls residing in and/or going to school within the Mamaroneck and Rye Neck School Districts are eligible.

Our mission: To promote the enjoyment of basketball and team sports by providing an inclusive and supportive sports environment for the boys and girls of our community. As a recreational league, we emphasize sportsmanship, participation, and skills development for all players.

CLOTHING & EQUIPMENT

Coaches will distribute team t-shirts. Sneakers are required and we recommend that each player bring a water bottle. No jewelry may be worn.

CLINICS (grades 1st - 3rd)

Clinic sessions will start with skills development and practice, and will finish with a scrimmage against another team. For grades 1st and 2nd, the sessions will be lead by an L.M.B.A. instructor who will demonstrate drills and supervise practice and games. Grade 3 clinics are run entirely by the coaches. Sessions will be held on selected Saturday afternoons between December 5th and March 20th. Players will be contacted by their coaches a few weeks prior to the first session.

LEAGUE PLAY (grades 4th - 12th)

Teams will have weekly practices of one hour or so, at times from 6:15 p.m. through 10:00 p.m. on weekdays at local schools. We will schedule practices with younger teams at earlier times; coaches will choose their practice slot at the draft. Games will be held on selected weekend afternoons between December 5th and March 21st. Professional referees, a scorekeeper and a timekeeper will supervise the games. The emphasis of our league is on participation and skill development, not competition. We expect each team member will play at least half of each game.

For grade school leagues, players may also be eligible to play up one grade, subject to roster availability.
