Dear BSLPAA families:
We are pleased to announce some exciting news regarding Basketball in your community. BSLPAA has joined forces with both Blaine and Spring Lake Park youth basketball programs to improve and simplify the basketball offering in our community. Instead of running these programs like we have for years we have made the decision to hand it over to the various organizations that run Basketball year round. We have had many collaborative meetings to discuss this change and feel that the upcoming season is the time to move forward.
Starting this fall both Blaine and SLP will be offering an "in house" type program as well as the traditional traveling programs for both girls and boys. If you attend Blaine schools you would sign up with Blaine basketball and if you attend SLP schools you would sign up with SLP’s Basketball program. If you attend a non public school you would sign up for the school you "would" be attending.
The two gentlemen who have been running our in house programs have joined the Blaine and SLP boards to oversee this transition and ensure that every child has a place to play basketball.
Both links to the various websites are on our website to assist you in navigating this change. If you should have any questions feel free to contact us.
Thanks and enjoy the summer!!
Phil Richard
BSLPAA President
