PAL/SFRP basketball season is off and running
It’s halftime in PAL/SFRP basketball. After three weeks of rugged basketball, some 64 teams, ranging from third through eighth grade, are getting ready to burst back on the court and sink some more baskets.
The league includes 44 PAL teams and 19 SF Park and Rec teams. They play each other in two divisions: a younger division (third through sixth grade), and a middle-school division (seventh and eighth grade, with a few sixth grade teams).
The PAL/SFRP basketball season is a relatively short one — six weeks — from October 4 to November 19. Playoffs take place right before Thankgiving.
The PAL/SFRP basketball program comes at an unusual time — the fall, before most school basketball seasons get started. But this gives our league a special appeal. Many basketball coaches like the PAL/SFRP season because it gives kids a chance to warm up and practice before their school season kicks in.
