The Elite Division at TCYBA is suited to players who wish to further develop their basketball skills in a more competitive atmosphere and are willing to commit to more practice time and a higher level of competition. If your son or daughter is new to basketball, then Elite tryouts are usually not the best place for them to start their basketball experience. While the emphasis will still be on fun, friendship and sportsmanship, there will be a greater focus on competition and expectations of commitment will be higher for players. While we encourage all young players to be multi-sport athletes and will not ask anyone to quit another sport to focus solely on basketball, the Elite Division does expect a commitment to the entire season and a willingness to make all practices and games.
The number of teams participating at each age/gender level will be determined after tryouts are complete and player assessments are finalized. The number of teams will be determined by the number of players who are assessed as being Elite level players.

Participation Cost
The cost to participate is approximately $900 per player.
A $450 non-refundable deposit will be required upon selection to a team. The balance will be due on June 15. All funds will be payable via credit card payment through our Stack Sports registration system. As a registered Not for Profit organization, TCYBA charges only what it anticipates the overall costs of the Elite program will be.
All selected participants will also be charged a $125.00 uniform fee. This amount covers the cost of the uniform package all participants will receive and keep as their personal uniform. This amount is payable upon selection to an Elite team.
Age confirmation to participate in the Champions league is mandatory through National Sports ID. Any cost related to this process is the responsibility of the participant.
***PLEASE NOTE*** Due to advance monetary commitments for league and tournament play, no refunds will be given for Elite team players. The only exception will be for a verified medical reason and if that player’s spot can then be filled on the roster at a pro-rated amount by another player designated by the coach to be an Elite caliber player.
