The Niskayuna Youth Basketball Association, Inc. (“NYBA”) was formed by interested parents in 2004. The organization’s activities are limited to those that afford it IRC Section 501(c)(3) Not-For-Profit status. NYBA is a member of the Capital District Youth Basketball League (“CDYBL”), providing competitive basketball for grades 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8. CDYBL play typically includes 15 regular season games and various tournaments.

NYBA Mission Statement NYBA is dedicated to providing the basic foundations of athletic instruction, individual and team development, and sportsmanship while participating in the competitive basketball environment of the CDYBL.

NYBA Membership The yearly membership of NYBA consists of approximately 50-60 players (4th, 5th, 6th, 7th & 8th graders from the Niskayuna community) who make up the official rosters of the five (5) teams sponsored by NYBA, their parents or legal guardians as registered with NYBA, volunteers and respective Head Coaches and Assistant Coaches. Teams are selected in the early fall by a try-out process. Players are assessed a season fee to cover insurance, league fees, referee & gym usage charges for home games, tournament fees, equipment and association operating costs. All NYBA officers and coaches serve on a voluntary basis.

Important Information For NYBA Web Site VisitorsVisitors to this site are encouraged to view the general (including FAQ’s) and try-out information provided on the “Handouts” page. Please click on “Handouts” on the menu to the left.

The Niskayuna Youth Basketball Association tryouts are over and the teams have been selected. Please see the team listings below.

We want to thank all of the boys that tried out for their respective teams. At all the of the tryouts coaches from other age groups were there to help select the final teams.

It was not sn easy process and many of the boys were very close, but we can only keep so many on a team. So if your son did not make the team, we would encourage you to have him continue to play basketball either in Jr. Warriors program or on a CYO team. Many players that tried out, if the improve and work on their skills, could make the team next year.

For those boys that made the team, Congratulations! You will be receiving an email from your coach with practice times for next week. Our first game of the CDYBL season is November 5th. Good luck to all the teams!
