Frequently Asked Questions


  • What is Silver Lake Basketball League

    Silver Lake Basketball League (SLBL) is our in-house league, or recreation league. We chose to rebrand this to start pushing a positive message back into the in-house league. This is for athletes to develop the fundamentals of basketball which is extremely important if you wish to take the next steps into travel or even AAU basketball. Our travel coaches depend on the fundamentals being known so that they can focus on play driven basketball. For travel athletes it is still strongly encouraged to play in the SLBL as its a fun atmosphere where fundamentals are taught and you can work on your game.


    Basketball is a sport that truly builds through in-game reps, so adding 1 extra game a week is a great opportunity.

  • Seasons

    Silver Lake Basketball League will consist of 2 different seasons (Winter and Summer), each with their own sign up. Jerseys will remain the same in each league so if you do not need to purchase a new jersey you can save some money along the way!

  • Divisions
