🏀🚂 RAILER LITTLE LEAGUE BASKETBALL IS IN THE WORKS! 🏀
We’re excited to begin building our Railer Little League Basketball program for students in Kindergarten through 5th grade!
Our goal is simple: get kids in the gym, help them learn the game, build confidence, develop skills, and most importantly, HAVE FUN!
🏀 ALL children are welcome, whether they attend USD 487, are homeschooled, or live outside our district!
📣 WE NEED PLAYERS AND VOLUNTEER COACHES!
We’re still in the planning stages, so all dates are currently estimated and subject to change as we continue building the program.
Right now, we’re simply gathering interest from families and community members! If you have a child interested in participating OR you’re willing to volunteer as a coach, please complete our interest form.
