Equipment

Season Info

Equipment

The only extra equipment needed is a water bottle, gym shoes, basketball and a basketball bag. It is recommended to bring a water bottle for every practice and game. A pair of basketball shoes that can be used ONLY for the gym (high top shoes are really good, and helps prevent ankles from injury) A basketball to practice at home and a bag to keep all equipment together between practice and games.

Important Information

Due to the success and the greater competition offered by the nearby towns Ponder Pals will continue to partner with the recreational interlock of the surrounding towns of Sanger, Pilot Point, Tioga, Aubrey, Valley View and Era. This recreational interlock will allow these towns to play each other and have a basketball season. Please understand this requires some travel for games. Also gym time for practice will be very limited as basketball has the largest number of teams and limited space available. We have opened practices back up this year but please be mindful and do not bring up extra siblings or family unless absolutely necessary as this is distracting for the player and coaches. We would still like to be mindful of safety measures and parents please ensure that you are cleaning up behind yourself after practice. No trash left in the bleachers please.
