Whitefish Bay Jr Dukes Basketball Club

Jr Dukes Boys 2021/2022 Tryouts Registration

Welcome

WELCOME TO WFB BOYS JR DUKES BASKETBALL!

The Whitefish Bay Jr Dukes Boys Basketball Club is a youth basketball program that serves as a feeder to the WFB High School. Our program is open only to 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th grade players that attend a Whitefish Bay public school or live in Whitefish Bay.  7th and 8th grade players will be grandfathered under the prior rule that included parochial schools in WFB as well if that player was already in our program. 

 

Our goal as a program is to develop young players and help them gain and maintain a love for the sport. We believe basketball is a positive activity that not only builds strength and physical ability, it also fosters confidence and team work, and other important life skills. We're grateful to the volunteers, families and supporters who help make this program possible. 

 

This program is for players that are committed to playing basketball from late October into mid-March. Once committed to a Jr Dukes team, players are not allowed to play for any other high school feeder program (i.e. Jr Hiltoppers, Jr Knights) during the regular season. And during our regular season, we ask that the boys make Jr Dukes their priority over other sports or activities. 

 

The teams will begin practice in late October/early November (2 practices per week for 4th-8th, and 1 practice per week for 3rd) play in league games from late November through mid-March. Schedules will not be set until October and will be shared at that time. 

The following is a registration for your son to participate in tryouts only, and will not serve as a registration for the season. We highly encourage all players to come to both sessions so our evaluators can make the best placement decisions for your son.
