The Warhawks Youth Basketball Association is a community based, travel basketball program in Westerville, Ohio. We offer youth basketball players in 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th grades, the opportunity to develop their individual and team basketball skills. We strive to prepare these athletes to eventually compete for the Westerville Central Varsity Basketball programs. Our program is a member of the Central Ohio Basketball Association (COBA) competing against top competition from around the Central Ohio area.
Player Commitment: The season runs from November - February, with practices 2 nights per week (starting early November) and generally 2 games per weekend (starting late November/early December). The teams will have between 14-16 games during the regular season plus 2-3 events/tournament (pending grade level). Home Games will be played at the Westerville Central High School on Sundays. Away Games will be played at other Central Ohio area schools on Saturdays and/or Sundays.
