What Would It Be Like...Without Changes

Just letting you know that a couple of games have been added. The 10U Girls (Pino's) will travel to Powhatan this Sat. to Flat Rock Elem. School to play the girls from the YMCA at 9:00 am. Right afterward, the 15U Girls (Route 20 Market) will play at the same location.

The 15U Co-Ed Team (Amos Trucking) will play a Nottoway team (Exchange Club) at 4:00 pm instead of 2:00 pm. And 15U Co-Ed Central VA Exterminating will play Nottoway (Eagle Club) at 1;00 pm. The location of that game is a Home game at the Buckingham County Middle School. I will post any other changes.

Upcoming Games

The Buckingham County Youth League has a lot of games leading up to the weekend and after the weekend as well. The only thing...they are all AWAY games.

The 15U Girls (Route 20 Market) took a Loss from the Calvary Christian School last night  37-20. Right afterwards the 15U Co-Ed team (Amos Trucking) played and put a "W" in their Win/Loss column by defeating Calvary Christian School 55-41.

ALSO ADDED

The 10U Girls (Pino's) will travel to play Cumberland's 10U Girls team tomorrow.

The next games to be played will be on Saturday with 15U Girls (Rt. 20 Market) traveling to Powhatan and the rest of the teams going to Nottoway. Games will be played at Nottoway High School.

Sunday and Monday we have teams going to Scottsville. So check on your teams page to get dates and times. Also, the games on Monday was just added.

Game Mix-up in Buckingham, Powhatan and Nottoway

To our parents, fans, coaches and players...sorry for the mix-up in the scheduling of games. It seems Buckingham had the major problems, but other counties went through the same. Powhatan has some earlier problems and well as games in Nottoway. Majority of the games was played and we had a good day of youth league basketball throughout central Virginia.

The season is winding down and we (BCYL Administration) is looking ahead to the All-Star Tournaments. However, there is still regular season games to be played. So coaches and players you need to concentrate on upcoming games. There have been some cancel games that well be made up so look for these games to be added. The other counties administration and Myself have gotten together and we will contact each other to make sure we don't have this...Mix-up again.

To some of my parents...I am punishing myself by doing the push-ups.

Youth League Knight

Buckingham Girls vs Bluestone

Youth League Knight for the Buckingham County Youth League and the county's Upward program where the youth league players could watch the Buckingham County High School Girls JV basketball team defeat Bluestone 41-13 and the Girls Varsity finished the night with a 33-22 victory.

Tomorrow night the county's youth can watch the Boy go against Randolph-Henry.

Upcoming Games and Games Today

What a wonderful day for basketball today. In spite of going 3-3 for the day, it was a lot of good basketball. Really close games with teams getting their first "W" and "L" of the season. And we have two of our 15U teams (Girls and Co-Ed) making a trip across the street to the Nazarene Camp to play the Calvary Christian School on Monday.

Also I want to apologize to the 15U Central Va. Exterminating team for the mix up on the schedule sending the team to Scottsville when the game was set to play here in Buckingham at the Middle School. I will look over and make sure that won't happen again.

Changes to Schedule

I have made some changes to the schedule in the past couple of days. I am not really trying to confuse the good parents and fans of our BCYL Basketball community. But there was some changes that had to be made to benefit the children of our program. So check to see what changes have been made for you team.

Just got a call from Powhatan YMCA. The games with the 12U Girls is still on tomorrow at 9:00 am. However, they don't have enough girls for the Girls 15U game that was suppose to be at 10:00am. That game has been cancelled.

Games From Last Weekend

Games Scheduled Tomorrow...It's a "Go"!

Just want to keep the community informed on games scheduled tomorrow at the Buckingham County Middle School. It's a "Go" for tomorrow.

I will be contacting Powhatan and Scottsville, but we are planning on conducting our games as planned.

Games This Past Weekend

CCS - Calvary Christian School

Games this Past Weekend

As for the games this weekend, the Powhatan YMCA came to visit and play our Buckingham 12U. The 15U Girls from Powhatan YMCA couldn't get a full team, so the 12U girls from the Powhatan YMCA played BCYL 12U Girls in a double header game. By looking at the "Results" below...the 12U Lady Knights played well. 

Changes to Look for this Upcoming Week

With the Buckingham County Schools being closed for Dr. Martin Luther King Birthday on Monday, and the Buckingham County High Boys JV and Varsity Basketball team hosting the Central of Lunenburg on Tuesday, the Buckingham County Youth League will not be allowed to have a practice on these days. We can get the gyms (High and Middle School) on Wednesday...as for right now. 

The BCHS Girls JV and Varsity will host Bluestone and the BCMS will be conducting a Spelling Bee on Thursday of this upcoming week. So both gyms will not be available for us on Jan. 18, 2018. And as some of you are aware, we were going to finish taking Individual and Team pictures on that date. We are planning on another date, so look for this change pretty soon.

Meanwhile, I have added more games to our 15U Girls and Co-Ed teams with the Calvary Christian School. So look at your teams pages to get updated games, dates and times. Check on the Practice Schedule to see  what teams have practice this week and where. Again...we have six practice spots this week in the public schools and the BCYL have 11 teams with games coming up the following weekend. The Buckingham County Middle School will play their final game next week and that will give us more practice spot in the near future.

"Practice Schedule" Added

I know sometimes there is some confusion with setting up and planning with our Basketball Program. So I added a Practice Schedule to the Main Menu so you can see when and where your team practices. We utilize the public school's facilities for our BCYL Basketball program. So we are at the mercy of the School's Girls and Boys Middle School, Junior Varsity and Varsity basketball teams. It is hard to schedule set days for our basketball teams because our coaches are volunteer and they have to work around their busy schedules. Plus, the High and Middle schools have games spread throughout the weeks. So we have to get the gyms when it is available. I will post when your team will be practicing when I get it cleared with the coach.

Buckingham County Youth League

2017-18

Winter Cheerleading

Just wanted to let everyone know that is interested in our Winter Cheer what to expect from our Winter Program or what we have for our program as of right now. Our "Fall" Cheer that goes on during our Football Games has been very successful and productive with our young girls in the county. Other counties (Cumberland and Amelia) have been experimenting with cheering during our BCYL Basketball season and been having a lot of fun. We figured it this could be something else our young ladies that is interested in Cheerleading, can come out and get the exposure at a level below our High School's JV and Varsity Cheerleading. And so we want our Buckingham girls to be able to have the same enjoyment as our neighboring counties.

Sign ups will be going on and when I get with the coach of our Winter Cheer program we will put out more information.

You can now do Buckingham County Youth League 2017-18 Basketball Sign Ups with Sports Illustrated Play online.

Click on the SI Play Logo above to be directed to the Buckingham County Youth League SI Play Website. You have to Register to pay online. Basketball and Cheer will be under the Fall Sports tab. 

The Buckingham County Youth League Sports Illustrated Play can be used for Basketball Registration and Signing Up for the 2017-18 Basketball and Winter Cheer program.
