Message from the President

July 2020

Hello AYBA Families,

On behalf of the AYBA Board of Directors, we hope everyone is healthy. We're sure, like ourselves, you all miss playing basketball. We understand how important youth sports are to everyone that participates in them.

The AYBA uses our local school district's facilities for our games, therefore we will be following their lead in regards to the pandemic. We trust that when the schools decide to open and/or let outside organizations like the AYBA back onto their campuses, then it will be safe to play.

Until that time, the AYBA is continuing to find ways to assist our community. Over the last 5 years, the AYBA has given OVER $200,000 to our local schools. In addition, each year we give out a $1000 college scholarships to four graduating high school seniors. It is our goal, not to only offer the best youth basketball organization in our area, but to be a positive contributor to our community in as many ways as we can.

The AYBA is made up of volunteers. As a past president, and now re-elected AYBA President, I am honored to work with these men and women who give their time selflessly to make this community better. Year after year we have been lucky to have so many outstanding people making the AYBA as good as it is. From our coaches to our administration, these folks are truly what makes a community great. And what better time than now, when we are not playing, to reflect and be thankful for those who make selfless contributions to our lives.

We hope to be back on the courts soon, watching and cheering our kids play a sport that they love. When that time comes, and it will, I'm sure we will all have a renewed passion for the game.

Until that time, Stay healthy.

Drew Fine,

AYBA President.

P.S The AYBA loves our volunteers! If you're looking for a way to give back to your community and would like to be a part of our team, feel free to email me through the link on our Board of Directors tab.
