Income-based fee reductions are available to qualified individuals for all Arlington County programs. Children who receive reduced lunch pay 50% of the basketball registration fee; children who receive free lunch pay 25%.  Children eligible for fee reductions can register online but  please do NOT complete the payment section and contact your league commissioner to make payment arrangements at the discounted rate. Individuals requesting fee reductions also may register in person at the Arlington Sports Office, or via mail. You can find more information about fee reductions here.

Refund Policy: There will be a $20 cancellation fee for all refunds.

Note: Our credit card processor adds a 2.5% surcharge to all credit card payments. Arlington County does not receive any portion of this fee. Debit cards are processed as credit cards and incur the 2.5% fee.  A $20 cancellation fee will be subtracted from cancellation refunds.

Location: All sessions are held at the Thomas Jefferson Community Center, 3501 2nd St. S.

Team Placement: Teams are organized by school. Priority to play on team with schoolmates or with the previous year’s team is given to those who register before the close of registration.  We do our best to accommodate requests, however, team sizes are limited to 8-10 players, and we cannot guarantee placement based on teammate or coach requests. 

Volunteer Coaches:  Volunteer coaches are essential to Arlington’s youth basketball program. Each team is assigned between 2-4 volunteer coaches.  The more coaches per team the better the ratio of participant to volunteer and enhances the overall participant experience.  Parents and other interested persons are encouraged to apply to coach a team.  The weekly time commitment is about 1 hour each Saturday morning. Information for 2025-26 coaches will be made available and posted prior to the season start.
